Since the failure of Texture and Libero, it seems less likely that a JATS-native Javascript editor will arise for integration into OJS according to our previous JATS-centric XML strategy.

However, there are several candidates for integration that do not use JATS as a native schema and have existing communities of maintenance: FidusWriter in the scholarly sphere, and TipTap and TinyMCE from outside it.

Investigate opportunities for the integration of a body text editor.

Unknowns:

  • How involved should this editor be in the scholarly workflow? (While we do want to support document-centric workflow, certain aspects of it -- e.g. convincing authors to adopt a new toolkit for making revisions -- may be tricky.)
  • Is it better to choose a naive body-text-only editor (e.g. TipTap/TinyMCE) and leave the entirety of the scholarly metadata exclusively to OJS? Or better to use a scholarly communication informed editor (e.g. FidusWriter, which supports citation management), which has a more suitable editing toolset but a smaller community (and some overlap with the OJS database)?
