I've been building out a very feature-rich editor for the last few months using Slate. Looked at all the alternatives and fell in love with Slate's model over all others. It's been great so far, far better than the old Quill editor I've been tasked with replacing. My only complaints are related to documentation, and a few footguns if you misuse the provided utilities, or get too crazy with your rendered react elements.

Test-driven development is not my usual approach to coding, but it's extremely beneficial (and easy to do) with slate. Especially for the recursive normalizer, which has grown very complex and fragile but plays an extremely important role in my editor.

I worry about long term maintenance of the library, only a small trickle of contributions come in. But in practice its been a perfectly stable library.

RTE in the browser is a full-time job even with a library like slate. Be warned!
