Discussion: Open to extract the core into a separate package?

[Cruiser13]

Thank you for creating this library! I think it is really useful.
We mainly build apps with Vue.js in our company. While we can use the editor in a vue.js environment with a react bridge, the overhead with shipping react side-by-side with vue is quite huge.
So we are thinking about forking the package and build a vue version of it.

But at the moment the core and the gui are very tightly bundled. So we would definately break any upstream options here. Roughly 60-70% of the code (for OOXML parsing, document model, layout engine, ProseMirror schema/plugins/commands) are framework agnostic as far as I can see though.

Would you be open for PRs to extract that core into a separate - framework agnostic - package that could be used for the current version and the vue variant? That way any of our contributions for the vue package could be directly used in the react repository aswell.

Hey @Cruiser13 glad you find this repo useful! I'm open to publishing a new package for Vue without react deps. We can restructure the repo into a monorepo with separate packages:

  packages/
      core/          
      react/         (published as current npm package)
      vue/          (new package)

PRs for pvue package would be very welcome once the structure is ready, I openspeced the plan in #79, and this is the #80 pr in progress that reorgs the repo

This is amazing, thank you so much. Can't wait to get started!
