If one were to write a simple text editor from scratch - is there some place with a "spec" or list of standard modern text editor UI paradigms one would need to implement to make the editor feel natural/normal ? (so it feels like Kate/GEdit/contenteditable)
I kinda get there are a lot of little subtle quirks and corner cases that need to be covered so it doesnt feel weird or janky
For instance EMACS CUA-mode is an example of a incredibly incomplete implemention
