 PublicLab.Editor is a general purpose, modular JavaScript/Bootstrap UI library for rich text posting, which provides an author-friendly, minimal, mobile/desktop (fluid) interface for creating blog-like content, designed for [PublicLab.org](https://publiclab.org) (itself an [open source project](https://github.com/publiclab/plots2)).
