Slate in comparison is much more flexible and we&amp;#x27;ve been using it in production for almost a year now. In fact we just launched a sticky notes project management tool which features a smooth rich text editing based on slate &lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;whimsical.co&amp;#x2F;sticky-notes&amp;#x2F;&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;whimsical.co&amp;#x2F;sticky-notes&amp;#x2F;&lt;/a&gt;</text><parent_chain><item><author>digitalbase</author><text>We&amp;#x27;re using Slate to for a mid-sized react application where content editing is the core.

Just curious since we’ve been working on various tools in the space (not directly related to either).
