Medium Post Embed
Embed a Medium Post
It lets users post their original ideas and viewpoints and share them with member readers or with the wider public. In Medium, there is a host of articles written on a broad variety of topics. It caters to a multifarious audience from all over the world. With Medium, the best writers can even earn with their writing.
I don't know about you, but I read Medium a lot. It's one of the go-to resources for community opinions on every kind of topic.
Stands to reason that references to Medium articles from reputable sources are an important part of learning, research and discovery of new information.
In this Custom Component, I have reverse engineered the Medium API to be able to fetch and display a full Medium post inside the Vulcan Editor.
Setup the Component
Future Improvements
This Component is very basic. In future, I might consider actually adding the paragraphs to the Editor NoteLines instead of just inside the component wrapper. This would enable me to capture the content and work with it with the rest of Vulcan's powerful tools such as text recognition and entity extracting, search indexing, new object generation.
External Dependencies
None, the API is public.
