Retrieving state (codes, text, formatting…)

[jdittrich]

I had a look at the code and wondered how to retrieve the state of the editor, i.e. the codes, the boundaries as well as the text and its formatting.

the codes and selections are managed independent from the editor (this is because they have to be accessed by many templates at once).

The reside in useCodes and useSelections were management of the data is done beyond templates.

They are retrieved and watched in the CodingEditor.vue file, where currently all selections are (very greedy) iterated and simply added to the highlight module, which under hood uses quill's formatText function.

If you want we can also to a video meeting to have a deeper exchange on the overall design and architecture.

One more note, acessing editor content is actually defined in the quill api: https://quilljs.com/docs/api#formatting

That would be great. Shall I write to the contact on your website?
