Set It in Roq: The Editor that changes the game!

roq-2.1 (3 Parts Series)

Roq started as a solid foundation for building modern apps and static sites. But now, it’s leveling up in a big way. With the introduction of a TipTap-powered Editor with Markdown support, Roq is no longer just an SSG tool, it’s stepping into CMS territory.

Why This Is a Big Deal

Until now, writers had to:

  • Use an IDE or a text editor.
  • Manually create new article files.
  • Manually open the article preview.
  • Use Markdown as code

Now, with Roq’s built-in editor:

  • Native integration: all integrated in Quarkus dev experience.
  • Rich Text Editor with Markdown support: write your content in a Notion-like editor, render beautifully.
  • Preview article: directly from the editor or using a new tab.

This makes Roq feel less like a static site generator and more like a developer-friendly CMS, closer to the flexibility of WordPress but without the heaviness.

Key Features

  • Rich formatting: Bold, italic, headings, lists.
  • Markdown support: Switch between rich text and Markdown seamlessly.
  • Code editor with syntax highlighting: For HTML and AsciiDoc content.
  • Media embedding: Images, links, and more.

How to Try It

The editor is natively integrated into Roq 2.1.
