Web-based Document Editor?

[just_another_person@lemmy.world]

OnlyOffice is probably going to be your best bet.

As long as you’re okay with an interface that slavishly clones the terrible MS-Word ribbon bar.

WYSIWYG or is typesetting an option? I can highly recommend Typst over at https://typst.app

I’m not a huge fan of Google as a company, but Google Docs seems to be the first and only one that actually put some new thought into how to organize their toolbar, so that’s my go-to.

Moving this to a top-level comment.

Overleaf is fantastic, as long as you are okay with non-WYSIWYG document editing and learning some LaTeX.

Typst is also worth looking at, as a similar concept. It uses a very different language than LaTeX, but feels more in touch with modern sensibilities.

I use Collabora CODE, which is an online version of LibreOffice. I don't know a ton about the technical details, but I'm pretty sure it does server side rendering.

Here's a guide to configure it with Nextcloud.

i don't know much about custom fonts, but there are two main options for self-hosted "word" replacements:

• Collabora CODE - LibreOffice wrapped up as a web application
• OnlyOffice

I use Collabora with Nextcloud (hence the link).

Usually you just see LibreOffice and nothing else, so it’s fine, I guess. Not a web-based editor, but usable.
