❓ FAQ
Q:Since CodeMirror6 already has ProseMark, why does this project exist?
A:The initial purpose of this editor was to provide Markdown editing support for my personal note-taking app LonaNote. Implementing it myself makes it easier to extend and customize editor features.
Q:Does it support Vue/React?
A:The CodeMirror editor is framework-agnostic and can be easily integrated with any frontend framework.
