Closes issue #82. 28 commits since 2.14.1; 616 tests pass.

Headline

Flask _editor is gone. scitex_writer._django is the new editor — at cloud-parity for layout and interaction, with an optional scholar bridge and a generic thumbnail service.

Added

  • Django editor (scitex_writer._django) replacing Flask. Uses scitex-ui's standalone shell + scitex-app's dev server.
  • Monaco LaTeX editor bundled with Vite; section tabs; automatic layout.
  • PDF preview, compile controller, log drawer, Preview / Full modes.
  • Insert panel — Cite / Fig / Table / Collab / History.
  • Viewer module (/viewer/) — claims overlay + DAG + citation hover. Unblocks Living Paper.
  • Rich citations panel ported from scitex-cloud — multi-select (Ctrl/Cmd-click), drag into Monaco to insert \cite{k1,k2}, scholar-aware hover + autocomplete.
  • Optional scholar bridge (pip install scitex-writer[scholar]). One-way consumer, SCHOLAR_AVAILABLE pattern, index.db SELECT path with MASTER-scan fallback. Degrades cleanly when scholar is absent.
  • Generic thumbnail service — Pillow for PNG/JPG/SVG/PDF (pdftoppm/rsvg-convert for vector), pandas+matplotlib styled previews for CSV/TSV/XLSX/ODS. Cache-keyed by sha1(abs_path + mtime). No figrecipe coupling.
  • PDF theme toggle independent of editor theme (auto / light / dark, persisted).
  • Dark-mode compile — editor theme drives dark_mode=True/False, injecting 00_shared/latex_styles/dark_mode.tex. Figures preserved.
  • Details right panel — Compilation, Overleaf, Prism, Project, Shortcuts.
  • Favicon set — 16 / 32 / 64 / 180 / 192 / 512 px PNGs + SVG wrapper.

Changed

  • Flask removed. scitex_writer._editor is gone.
  • Citation cache invalidated after Enrich / Add-to-manuscript.
  • Drag-and-drop uses custom application/x-scitex-cite MIME.
  • claims_rendered.tex uses portable \providecommand + ## tokens.
  • Renamed \stxclaim → \vclaim.
  • [scholar] extra pins scitex-scholar>=1.2.1.

Fixed

  • .u-hidden specificity; insert/details panels stay hidden when toggled off.
  • Shell panes hidden in standalone so writer gets full viewport.
  • merge_bibliographies output path handling.
  • Word-count comma separators use portable sed.
