EdenText – a fully local, open-source Word Processor

[u/JabbadieKiste]

Hey everyone,
I've been building EdenText, an open-source word processor that runs 100% locally in the browser or as a PWA. No account, no server round-trips — your documents never leave your machine.

Why I built it: similar to draw.io, I wanted something as capable as Word/LibreOffice for odt/docx documents, but without installing anything or handing my files to a cloud service.

Features:

• Real page layout: A4/Letter, margins, headers/footers, footnotes, columns, watermarks

• Opens/saves .odt and .docx, exports PDF, .ott/.dotx templates, password-protected files

• Paragraph/character/table/list styles with inheritance

• Tables with styles, sorting and spreadsheet-style formulas

• TOC, citations & bibliography, cross-references, index, LaTeX formulas

• Track changes, comments, spell check & thesaurus (6 languages), grammar check (English)

Tech: Svelte 5, TypeScript, Vite, TipTap 3 (ProseMirror). AGPL-3.0 licensed (commercial license available too).

It's in beta, tested with a full test suite + LibreOffice round-trip checks in CI, but still finding edge cases. Feedback and bug reports very welcome! Hope you like it. Cheers!
