## Strictly Frameworks

- Mobiledoc - https://github.com/bustle/mobiledoc-kit - framework to build editors with a standardized JSON structure
- Substance - http://substance.io - library for building editors and publishing systems
- ShareDB - https://github.com/share/sharedb - framework to sync any JSON document using operational transforms, add real-time collaborative editing to anything else
