TEXT EDITOR DATA STRUCTURES: RETHINKING UNDO

Summary from the TLDR Web Dev newsletter

The concept of undo and redo operations in text editors needs innovation in how they work. Using a graph-based data structure to store undo/redo information allows for a more flexible and intuitive way to navigate and visualize the editing history. Incorporating diffing will show the changes between different editing states, making it easier for users to understand the impact of undo/redo actions.
