texter

I'll start with a story

About 5 month ago, just a month after I started programming in haxeflixel, I wanted to make an app that needed text input, specificly of type RTL.

for about 2 months I tried to find some existing (decent) RTL support, but didn't find any that were good enough.

It was the time I decided to take this duty upon myself - to add more support for text input (in that time - only in haxeflixel)

It might seem like I'm exaggerating, but trust me, it took me a while to make progress, but when I did, I started making (good) progress. I figured that I'm not the only person that needs those fixes, and thats how and why I created this library.

Over-time, I wanted to add more things to the library

A month or so after the release of this library, I found myself needing a bunch more things - (markdown text, Char...) and this library expanded and expanded.

Today, it is no longer only an RTL-support focused library, but a general-purpose text-related library.

Does this mean I abandoned the project of cross-framework RTL? Of course not - but now, the library is W A Y more useful, providing visual markdown text, cross-platform cross-framework markdown interpreter, Emojis and more to come!

Can I Help/Contribute?

Of course! Any help is greatly appreciated! You can help with: - Fixing bugs - Writing/fixing documentation - Making code more readable, simpler & shorter (don't worry, I think my code is pretty understandable ;) ) - Writing code for the library - Adding projects that you think are useful

And more that pops up in you mind!
