A really solid looking editor! Just a heads up on small, mobile screen sizes: the UI elements of the top row overlap unusably, the rest of the UI seems usable just quite zoomed in and I really had to pan around a lot to do anything. Fundamentally a solid and usable UI, I’d recommend a little more polish on smaller screen sizes. Good work!

Hi! I was looking at `@eigenpal/docx-editor-agents`—would that be a viable option for fetching the content of Word docs in agentic workflows? I'm currently using Pandoc to extract an MD version, but I'm not sure how true to the actual document that is (e.g., with comments).
Thanks!

Do you plan to handle bigger documents?
I tested your live demo with ~40 pages (copy pasting the demo) and was quite unusable for writing.

I’ve built something similar but for PDFs. Know the pain too well. Best wishes!

Holy shit, this is exactly what I needed for a major client. The track changes specifically, and being able to do it from Typescript. You have no idea how happy you just made me.
Edit: Did you just make this repo public? Last week I was scouring the internet for something like this and couldn't find it.

This looks really impressive. How hard was it to implement this in typescript?
