Updates
What a strange week that was. I hope that we will finally see some sunshine in the coming days here in my village. It feels like winter and looks like autumn outside. Even inside my apartment it's currently only 14°C, because the heating controller is broken again since yesterday (now the 3rd time in a year).
Hopefully, it will be fixed tomorrow, because it's hard to sit here for a longer period of time. The candles that we placed in all rooms to get some heat are not really effective and I don't like to inhale that much paraffin in a day, but there is no other way currently.
While I was testing to edit existing posts by different Steemians, I identified a few common problems, which seem to occur regularly when using the currently available post editors. I often see posts where the text below a picture (inside a block element) doesn't start in a new paragraph as shown here:

I'm now talking about things that are not really related to the image above this text. Looks like it should be displayed in a new paragraph, therefore one may need to take a break here:
<br> = forced line break ;)
[ your image ]
<br>
Now the text starts in a new paragraph.

Now the text starts in a new paragraph.
The fact that most content creators here don't have much knowledge about using HTML correctly, but they need to use it, because otherwise their posts wouldn't look as professional as they want them to be, makes me reconsider the required capabilities of my editor.
I don't like to see people without any clue struggling with <div> elements and attributes like class="text-justify". There are many posts in the chain already, which contain incorrect HTML with missing closing tags like </div>'s. In many cases the displayed result won't even differ much, because most markdown parsers try to make the best out of the crap, but I think a good editor should inform the user about such things like missing/incorrect tags at least.
As I don't have any deadline for finishing my editor, I will spend some more time with it in order to find a one-click solution for those cases. Wouldn't it be great, if we could just click on a 'make centered', 'justified', 'pull left/right' button, instead of having to use HTML?
My main mission didn't change, but I added a few major objectives. The testing phase will begin later than expected, because I need to make changes to the editor's base. I will keep you informed about the status ;)
Have a wonderful week!
