Show HN: Domternal – headless rich-text editor for Angular/React/Vue/Vanilla

Domternal is a new headless rich-text editor designed for Angular, React, Vue, and Vanilla JavaScript. It offers a framework-agnostic approach, allowing developers to integrate a customizable editing experience across different frontend stacks without being tied to a specific UI library.

Background

- Domternal is a new headless rich-text editor designed to work with Angular, React, Vue, or plain JavaScript (Vanilla). "Headless" means it provides the editing logic and data model but lets developers build their own UI on top, rather than forcing a pre-built toolbar or appearance. - Rich-text editors let users format text (bold, italics, lists, etc.) in web apps — common in content management systems, note-taking tools, and document editors. Popular alternatives include TinyMCE, Quill, ProseMirror, TipTap, and Slate. - "Show HN" is a category on Hacker News where developers present their personal projects to the tech community for feedback; appearing there can help a new open-source tool gain early users and contributors. - Choosing a frontend-agnostic editor matters because many teams use multiple frameworks or switch frameworks over time — a locked-in solution can create migration headaches.
