Hypothes.is VS Draft.js

Hypothesis https://web.hypothes.is/ is pretty good at keeping notes on PDF. Normally it anchors the annotations for any url but I believe that for PDF is also doing some extra checksum magic to uniquely identify the PDF and apply the annotations. Furthermore you can have collaboration features such as group annotations. Useful for classes or science labs... - Source: Hacker News / 7 days ago

Tools like https://web.hypothes.is exist and have a decent number of installs. The hard part of a generic third-party commenting tool is creating the right social context for it to actually be useful. Hypothesis for example is mostly used via its integration into online learning platforms, where that context already exists. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

I honestly can't imagine not using extensions. I'm 39 and have been on the web since Netscape etc in the early 90s and I honestly care more about the extensions than I do anything the browser actually does.

I want to note that it was previously decided to use DraftJS as HTML-WYSIWYG implementation. Looking ahead I want to emphasize that I wasn’t going to “reinvent the wheel”. On the opposite, the first thing I did was a search for similar solutions. But to my astonishment, I haven’t found even a single similar solution. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

If you want to write the GUI code in Rust, you'd need something like Dioxus (which uses Tauri under the hood). But note that the Rust GUI ecosystem is still new, so I doubt we have something like Draft.js (a wysiwyg editor component for React). There's a lot of complexity involved in writing a text editor, and I'll suspect you'll have to handle a lot of that yourself. Source: almost 2 years ago
