In this episode of DejaVue, Alex and Michael are joined by Vanessa Otto, a Senior Engineer at GitLab and previously being the head of Frontend at Zavvy.
After discussing Vanessa's co-host role in the German Working Draft podcast, it all revolves around the headless editor "Tiptap" in the episode. From hearing why Vanessa chose it instead of other editors and her research around editors, Tiptaps integration with Vue and what the "headless" part of the editor adds to it, over to which use cases are ideal for Tiptap.
And yes, an example repository is included so you can convince yourself of the easiness! Enjoy the episode!
