What is the Quill Delta format?

Quill Delta is the name given to the data structure that describes a Quill document. In other words, when a Quill editor loads a document, it's loading a document in the Quill Delta format. When a Quill editor alters a document, the changes are expressed in the Quill Delta format.

The following is a tiny example of a Quill Delta document:

{
  "ops": [
    { "insert": "Gandalf", "attributes": { "bold": true } },
    { "insert": " the " },
    { "insert": "Grey", "attributes": { "color": "#cccccc" } }
  ]
}

What is super_editor_quill?

The super_editor_quill package is a Flutter package that adds Quill Delta format support to the super_editor package (Super Editor on Pub).

Supporting the Quill Delta format means that a SuperEditor document can be constructed from a Quill Delta document. Also, a SuperEditor document can be serialized to a Quill Delta document.

Regardless of the incoming or outgoing document format, the actual editing pipeline within SuperEditor remains the same. Thus, you could start a document from Markdown, and then export a document to Quill Delta, or vis-a-versa. SuperEditor internals are format agnostic.
