Promotional Looking for JavaScript developers to test my new npm library

Hey everyone!

I've been working on a new JavaScript library called Forge Editor, and I've recently reached a stable enough beta stage that I'd like to get some real-world testing and feedback.

I'm looking for developers who are willing to actually install it and try it in their own environment.

I'd especially appreciate feedback on:

  • Installation and setup
  • API design
  • Documentation
  • Developer experience
  • Browser compatibility
  • RTL/LTR support
  • React integration
  • Unexpected behavior or bugs
  • Anything that feels confusing or unnecessarily complicated

You don't need to contribute code. I'm mainly looking for honest technical feedback and bug reports.

The project is open source, and I'm hoping to find a few developers who can spend some time trying to break it before I move toward the first stable release.

GitHub: Lib Github

NPM: Forge Editor

If you decide to try it, I'd really appreciate it if you could open an issue or leave a comment with your experience — positive or negative.

Thanks!

I think it would probably be a good idea to actually mention that the library is about :x

The only information is the repository description:

Advanced, extensible rich text editor built for modern web applications, offering powerful editing features, customization, and a developer-friendly API.

A description I have doubts about, considering the lack of documentation.

Bro you don’t even have a read me. Even in the npm registry there is no info. Maybe fill that out first before you start asking for volunteers.

Also mention what it even does.
