NIB

Despite various options available for rich text editing in html, it continues to be extremely challenging area. I found prosemirror to be the best available solution for the problem. It is great work by author Marijn Haverbeke.

Making an editor ground up from a framework is still much work, the project aims at building react components for rich text editing using prosemirror. These components can be quickly integrated into react or even ron-react applications.

Setup

Setup of the editor is straight forward. Editor is a package on npm, and toolbars and each plugin is a package of its own and is required to be installed from npm.

Installing packages:

Either npm or yarn commands can be used.

npm i nib-core --save

Writing editor component:

import React from "react";
import Editor from "nib-core";

const MyEditor = () => (
  <Editor
    plugins="block inline"
    toolbar={{ htop: "block inline" }}
  />
);

Props

Props supported by the editor.

3 plugins List of plugins to be added, currently supported plugins are: inline, block, list
