Description

Seamless integration with popular document editing tools, such as Microsoft Word or Google Docs, would enable users to easily insert citations and generate bibliographies while working on collaborative documents within CryptPad. This integration would enhance the overall research and writing experience within the platform.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate existing citation management standards and APIs (e.g., Zotero, CSL, BibTeX). Explore CryptPad's rich text editor (likely based on CKEditor or ProseMirror) to find extension points. Propose a design for integrating citation insertion and bibliography generation, considering plugin architecture and potential backend services.
