Wax, the web-based word processor, has just been upgraded and is looking pretty awesome. Big ups to Christos (the sole developer). There is an update on the Coko site about the upgrade (next year is the year of community for Wax): The page you’re looking for could not be found (404) coko.foundation
Christos has been working hard on fixing copy n paste and spell check in wax.
Christos has been working on our new web-based word processor -Wax 2. It is based on the best-of-breed ProseMirror open source libs.

We also have a similar feature in Wax 1, but … Continue reading “Code Editor in Wax 2”
Today Christos posted the first (and early) release of Wax (web-based word processor) built on top of ProseMirror…more awesomeness! It looks basic, but there is a lot coming…it will become a fully customisable web based word processor…stay tuned…(Alison reported the ogv video only works in Chrome).

At Coko we are currently pulling the Wax Editor apart to componentise it. This will make extending and customising it a whole lot easier. To follow the project see the repository here : https://gitlab.coko.foundation/editoria/wax-pubsweet

I’m thinking of things like a typesetting engine – Pagedjs. No one in their right mind opts to commit time and resources … Continue reading “One Enormous Step at a Time – Now JATS”
Kotahi has been in the wings for a while. Now, however, we are moving ahead with some more accelerated development. In short-time the product has been extended in collaboration with eLife. We now also have the platform in production at eLife. The following is a brief outline of the current state. Importing content Kotahi has … Continue reading “A brief outline of Kotahi features”
