This is one is NICE!

http://freshcode.co/plugins/jquery.contentEditable/demo.html

https://github.com/mquan/freshereditor is based of that one

I'm sure you've heard of NicEdit: http://nicedit.com/

balupton commented 13 years ago

@scribu - nope, nicedit is very interesting; MIT licensed and 2007-2008 copyright! cool. Thanks!

I think on a longer term it would make sense to have a proper, liberally licensed and shared contentEditable core in either jQuery or jQuery UI, and then have the different editor projects extend that with their own UI and plugin concepts.

After all, dealing with browser incompatibilities in markup, command, paste and other event handling is a common problem for all of them.

https://github.com/jejacks0n/mercury is another

so competition/alternatives are out there... and are actually viable alternatives

hahmed commented 13 years ago

Lol... @Ben- sounds as though your research may compell some people to look for another editor other than Aloha, some of these look real good!

balupton commented 13 years ago

Yeah sure, but people will pick whichever one is right for the job! If another project is better suited for someone, they should use it. If aloha editor is better suited for them, they should use it. Alternatives are a good thing, nothing can satisfy everyone :) We're all in this business together, as family, not enemies!

It's good to know where the alternatives are at, from competition, recruitment, and strategic standpoints :)

http://rangy.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/demos/core.html - is good for the selection range stuff, but isn't at the point yet which the aloha editor stuff is - for instance, you can only wrap/surround a selection which is within one node.

but good to be aware of.
