The YUI Rich Text Editor is a UI control from Yahoo that turns textarea’s into fully functioning WYSIWYG editors. The result is a high performance and one of the best WYSIWYG HTML editors that offers editing features comparable to MSWord and Open Office. It builds from that, and aims to fix what FCKEditor got wrong. CKEditorĬKeditor is the new FCKEditor that proved to be the market leader previously. TinyMCE is one of the more “complete” editors out there, offering an experience similar to MSWord. It’s easy to integrate, and is highly customisable with themes and plugins. TinyMCE is an open-source JavaScript HTML WYSIWYG editor. It boasts many of the expected editor features and easily integrates into your site. NicEdit is an alternative to some of the larger, more complex WYSIWYG editors out there, with its small download size. It’s pixel-perfect and beautiful, but it does cost $99 to use it. Best of all. Atom.io is free and it’s made by Github.:)Īnother honorable mention goes to Coda, a super cool text editor for Mac users. If you want to use the best WYSIWYG HTML editor, that will save 10x the time when coding use Atom. Atom.io right now is used by all my programmer friends, myself include.
