I need to implement a rich text editor into a React app. The general choices are Draft, Slate, etc.. I tried probably all of the "top 15" editors. most fail miserably on Android. Draft is just unusable. Many have very strange behavior when selecting text. Quill was alright but pasting a large piece of html literally takes like 10 seconds for some reason instead of <1 second. I don't need anything like tables or images or videos. just text with formatting.

Is there anything out there that does basic function like bold/italics/alignment and allows for custom functions but is rock solid on mobile and also has a proper react interface?

I previously used Trumbowyg on a jQuery based site and it was nice and simple. I had to tweak it a bit to take care of pasting things like word docs but at least the interface didn't take a month to learn.

Ideally my RTE would have these features: 1 - simple interface 2 - rock solid (as much as possible given limitations) on ios/android 3 - support custom toolbar buttons with custom functions 4 - cleans up crazy pasted html (like MS Word) or at least exposes some interface that lets me clean it up 5 - has a proper react interface

  • So I came across Trix .. seems to work fairly well but the documentation is AWFUL. Plus full JS source code is not available.. only coffeescript (which I am not comfortable with). At this point a paid plugin is looking more attractive – Mike D Jun 14 '20 at 19:35
