Writers and developers requiring a toolkit for building rich-text editors on the web
About ProseMirror
Rich content editors should, ideally, produce clean, semantically meaningful documents while still being easy for users to understand. ProseMirror tries to bridge the gap between editing explicit, unambiguous content like Markdown or XML, and classical WYSIWYG editors. It does this by implementing a WYSIWYG-style editing interface for documents more constrained and structured than plain HTML. You can customize the shape and structure of the documents your editor creates, and tailor them to your application's needs. ProseMirror has built-in, ground-up, rock solid support for collaborative editing, where multiple people work on the same document in real time. Document schemas allow editing documents with a custom structure without writing your own editor from scratch. A modular architecture makes sure you only load the code you need, and can replace parts of the system as needed. A plugin system allows you to easily enable additional functionality.

Draft.js
We provide the building blocks to enable the creation of a broad variety of rich text composition experiences, from basic text styles to embedded media. Draft.js fits seamlessly into React applications, abstracting away the details of rendering, selection, and input behavior with a familiar declarative API. The Draft.js model is built with immutable-js, offering an API with functional state updates and aggressively leveraging data persistence for scalable memory usage. Draft.js is a framework for building rich text editors in React, powered by an immutable model and abstracting over cross-browser differences. Draft.js allows you to build any type of rich text input, whether you're only looking to support a few inline text styles or building a complex text editor for composing long-form articles. Draft.js is distributed via npm. It depends on React and React DOM which must also be installed.

Editor.js
Next generation block styled editor. Meet the new editor, on our webpage you can see it in action. It is a block-styled editor, it returns clean data output in JSON, and it is designed to be extendable and pluggable with a simple API. Workspace in classic editors is made of a single contenteditable element, used to create different HTML markups. Editor.js workspace consists of separate Blocks: paragraphs, headings, images, lists, quotes, etc. Each of them is an independent contenteditable element (or more complex structure) provided by Plugin and united by Editor's Core. There are dozens of ready-to-use Blocks and the simple API for creation any Block you need. For example, you can implement Blocks for Tweets, Instagram posts, surveys and polls, CTA-buttons and even games. Classic WYSIWYG-editors produce raw HTML-markup with both content data and content appearance. On the contrary, Editor.js outputs JSON object with data of each Block.
