Field Editors

Overview:

The @contentful/field-editorslerna is a monorepo that contains all the field editors and apps developed by Contentful.

The project uses Typescript, React, Forma36 (a design system & component library by Contentful), and is managed using Lerna. Code in the repository is automatically formatted with Prettier and checked with ESLint on every commit using Git hooks.
