Writing & Editing

The Zemna.AI editor is designed specifically for scientific writing, with features that understand academic structure, citation requirements, and research methodology.

Scientific Editor (Phase 2)

The editor is powered by Tiptap with scientific extensions, LaTeX equations (KaTeX), auto-save, and version history:

  • Rich text: Headings (H1–H6), bold, italic, lists, block quotes, code blocks, tables, links
  • LaTeX: Inline and display math; equation modal with live preview
  • Auto-save: 30-second debounced save; first save creates a publication, then updates
  • Version history: Snapshot and restore versions from the toolbar

See Scientific Editor for architecture, API, and usage.
