The Compositor 0.9.1 Quality Pass update for Windows & macOS is now available! This patch release fixes a focus issue in the formula editor on Windows, and some spurious crashes during typesetting.
Note that starting with 0.9, you can now update from within the app ("Check for Updates").

Compositor 0.9 for macOS and Windows is right around the corner, bringing the first iteration of a visual formula editor! I still need to give the website a little love, and then this release is a wrap.
Look out for the release announcement in the next few days! #WYSIWYG #TeXLaTeX

And here is the new visual formula editor integrated into the Windows app! I will fix any remaining bugs and then call this feature a wrap, woo-hoo!

I think the formula editor coming in Compositor 0.9 is ready for a first round of user feedback!

My goal for Compositor’s new formula editor is to support essentially all of KaTeX’s features (except for the HTML-specific ones). Is there anything you’d be missing?

A double-click on a formula in the WYSIWYG editor will now bring up the (work-in-progress) formula editor window. This clip shows keyboard navigation, selection, and some textual editing. The document is showing a live preview of the editing session in both WYSIWYG and source editors. Done will commit the changes as one undoable step, Cancel will bring the document back to its original state. github.com/ktraunmueller/Compositor/milestone/100 #WYSIWYG #TeXLaTeX
Formula editor sneak peek: Here's a screenshot of my work-in-progress formula editor testbed, with a carousel of example formulas, a simple template picker (for wrapping a selection in a square root, for example), and mouse and keyboard interaction. https://github.com/ktraunmueller/Compositor/milestone/100 #WYSIWYG #TeXLaTeX

All tickets for the Compositor 0.8.2 release are finally done. I will do some more testing and release the update in the next few days. Quite a bit of work went into this little release! #WYSIWYG #TeXLaTeX https://github.com/ktraunmueller/Compositor/milestone/105?closed=1

@thomasfuchs I use #retext ( https://github.com/retext-project/retext) for my #markdown work. Turning on live preview is basically a #wysiwyg experience. The problem I often see is the theming applications do on top of the MD.
#MarkText - Ein guter #Markdown- #Editor
Der Markdown-Editor "MarkText" ist eine gute Wahl, wenn man ablenkungsfrei schreiben möchte und eine #WYSIWYG-Ansicht bevorzugt.
Obwohl Markdown-Editoren ein beliebtes Thema bei uns sind, gibt es noch keinen Artikel über den Editor MarkText, was mich wundert. Gerade in unserer Community lösen Markdown-Editoren häufig die fetten Textverarbeitungsanwendungen ab, weil die Markdown-Syntax genug bietet, um einfach formatierte...
Looking for recommendations for an open source desktop WYSIWYG HTML editor (Mac/Win). I don't personally like WYSIWYG editors; prefer to work on the tags/code .. but I'm handing off this project to a client. Hoping to find something that doesn't make a mess of the underlying code (with bits of embedded PHP).
I'm seeing lots of options on the web, but would prefer recommendations from humans rather than random "review" sites. :-)

:kare_news: Journée d'études « Quand le code rencontre l’interface : hybrider les outils du design graphique » – jeudi 25 et vendredi 26 juin 2026 à l’amphithéâtre de la MISHA, à Strasbourg.
Organisé par @julieblanc, Clémence Imbert et moi-même dans le cadre du projet WYSIWYG.ch. Toutes les infos sont ici : https://wysiwyg.ch/symposium-code-interface/ y compris le lien pour pouvoir suivre en distanciel. 1/3
@nolwennm @julieblanc and the #WYSIWYG team, do you know about https://virtualosmuseum.org/ ?
J'aurais plein d'autres choses à raconter à propos de tout ça, mais je vais m'arrêter là pour le moment. Pour celleux que ça intéresserait, j'ai eu la chance d'être invité pour en parler à Bordeaux le 31 mai dans le cadre de la biennale Aperçu (@approche_graphismes) et à l'université de Strasbourg le 26 juin dans le cadre de la journée d'étude publique "#WYSIWYG et document structuré" (le programme arrive).
Peut-être que j'aurai la chance d'y croiser quelques-un·es d'entre vous ? 🙂

30 дней: блочный конструктор README — один DOM, два хозяина
Мы живём в эпоху когда можно написать в чат «сделай мне CRUD» и получить рабочий код через десять секунд что в принципе удобно. И это, если честно, главная причина почему я периодически намеренно лезу в что-то сложное руками — чтобы не разучиться думать о том что происходит внутри. ИИ я использую. Но в этом проекте он был исключительно быстрой документацией — особенно когда добрался до selection/range API, про которые до этого знал чуть меньше чем ничего. Реализация все равно была за мной. Так вот — ReadGen. Блочный конструктор README-файлов. Месяц, 2-3 часа в день, React и TypeScript и небольшая пачка дополнительных библиотек для разумного облегчения жизни. Важно понимать что это не коммерческий продукт и не претендует на решение чьей-то боли. Просто техническая задача которую я давно хотел разобрать.

By my napkin math, 170% scaling should be darn near #WYSIWYG for 4K @ 27"
But if 200% is more comfortable for you, go with that!
The next milestone, Compositor for Windows & macOS 0.8, will bring a document outline (tree view), the first inspector panels, and a visual table editor! #TeXLaTeX #WYSIWYG https://github.com/ktraunmueller/Compositor/milestone/99
For my wife's business I manage a website that uses #WordPress in the background. The pages are made with #elementor which is a powerful #WYSIWYG online-editor to create pretty nice designs.
Over the years the site constantly grew, gotten some replacements, etc. Every update has worked fine so far, until yesterday.
When I hit the "Publish" button in Elementor, an error showed up for a couple of seconds: server error (error 500).
The HUH? and the A-HA! in my blog.

WYSIWYG редактор хабра — баг репорт
Помнится мне, когда-то давно были каки-то статьи о проблемах редактора статей на хабре, просили сотавить некий старый, а сейчас тишина. Вот коем-то веке решил наваять свою первую статью, думал, что теперь все замечательно, но вот вляпался в WYSIWYG редактор хабра и его проблемы, о чем далее. В конце есть опросы для авторов на понимание проблем, только ли мне они мешают.
I want to share my experiences with #DecapCMS [1]. I set up a lot of static pages with #CI&CD in the past. #mkdocs material, #jekyll, #hugo. You name it. The challenge was always to bring in people not comfortable with #Git/ #Gitlab.
DecapCMS elegantly solves this without much overhead: You place a `js`, `config.yml` and `index.html` in your static site. DecapCMS connects to your Gitlab (or #Github etc.) via Application integration. Tada. Your users can now edit your Markdown based static site directly in a #WYSIWYG-like editor, without ever touching Git, Gitlab or Github. The backend and CI&CD all remain the same.
I had this on the radar for a long time, but only now was able to test it. The integration and setup process was much simpler than I thought. No additional service required, just static files!
Just saw a post in which someone referred to WYSIWYG as having been around since the early 2000s.
I really dig it when you can guess someone’s "geek age” by such historical references. 😉 It's a bit like witnessing someone learn that a favorite song of theirs is a cover version of a track that's been around for decades. 😏
(#WYSIWYG has been around for way longer than the 2000s. Like many foundational computing concepts, it was invented at XEROC #PARC in the ’70s: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WYSIWYG#History 😎)
