How do you feel about ProseMirror, and what browser WYSIWYG editor did you work on if you don't mind? I'm using it right now to build a personal notes editor, but there isn't much open source components to model my custom nodes to.

ProseMirror is not a "batteries included" solution, but rather a framework for creating them, so a lot of the UI stuff is missing and I wouldn't advise using it directly.

I worked on CKEditor 4 (very different from v5, which is a rewrite).
