To do

This page contains articles which I'm in the process of writing or plan to write about.

The following are some features I need to implement on the site:

  • Fix: Ace editor deletes 4 spaces instead of one, if it sees the oportunity to do so
  • Fix: Ace editor adds “-” when you press enter while editing a bullet point
  • Fix: Ace editor doesn't add syntax highlighting on code blocks
  • Fix: Popup about document “lock” while editing (clearly ignores Ace)
  • Fix: Toolbar is out of date right now
  • Fix: Source code not working
  • Fix: Disable annoying abbreviations like for OS and API
• New syntax:
  • Add: Next page and prev page in ToC if url has numbers /<page/<number> (/page/1, /page/2, etc.)

The following are some ideas I have which I'm not going to implement right away:

• Add: AI proof-reading and tags indicating how AI was used on the page
• Add: drawing vector images and embedding them directly into source code
• Add: Datetime in syntax. Mouseover gives how many days ago the date is
