I just merged a bigger pr last week where I used quillv1. My feature was fairly straight forward - I added a DSL so that users could build custom filter expressions for our trace-data analysis (automotive). I wanted to be tight with my business logic so I added my own lexer, parser and grammar evaluation with neat compiler hints and such - was a joy.

But when it came to the frontend it was infuriating. All I wanted was to hightlight the idex of my "compiler-error" but it was just a mess (every once in a while the text-cursor would jump around, sth I simply couldnt fix entirely). Ontop of that this [issue](https://github.com/quilljs/quill/issues/3806) exists - which forces us to upgrade once primeNg lets us. Anyone knows a good alternative? I am done with quill and would love to use something more stable.
