A survey of web Rich Tech Editor Framework

published on 2023/10/24

It's really a bit tricky to make decision on which RTE (Rich Text Editor) framework to adopt for your web application. Here's a good list based on our research so far.

  • TipTap. It is based on ProseMirror which is a highly regarded low level RTE framework.
  • Stack Overflow Editor is also based on ProseMirror.
  • Jodit has a good free version and a very reasonable paid version.
  • PlateJs is new (released this year) and built on top of SlateJs. It has a lot of functionalities out of the box.
  • Lexical comes from FB but it looks really barebone. It seems similar to ProseMirror, a low level framework that require more work to provide common features.
