trix VS Summernote

Trix was the winner. It was easy to style, is well maintained, has documentation for embedding it into a form, is easy to create custom keyboard shortcuts for, has great examples on how to save/load content or modify it with javascript.

In some case, you may need to allow the user to upload the file in the text editor like Trix editor. However, you current configuration not allowed it, you need to configure the CORS. Here the configuration

I inspected the text editor and it looks like it's something called Trix. The example on their website has a hyperlink button. No idea how to add links in StoryGraph though, besides the workaround the other user mentioned. Maybe ask Nadia on Instagram or Twitter - she's super responsive!

I'm sure something like Trix (used in Ruby on Rails) would probably do the job - https://trix-editor.org/

For this, you can add a small, isolated component to the page. An example from Rails is the Trix rich text editor: it is a standard web component.

I have been implementing a kind of blog builder using ActionText and Trix. However, understanding how Trix works, customizing it, and making image uploads possible, seems not very well documented. Also, looking at Trix's Github page there doesn't seem to be a lot of activity.

Summernote

We use Summernote which is fine, there can be bugs with our integration but that is more down to our hacking around with it than the actual software.

These past days I tried Action Text for the first time and got a bit disappointed with it, in the end I ended up using Summernote (https://summernote.org/) instead, here are my thoughts on what could be improved:

You can fairly easily add the ability to edit the text using something like https://summernote.org/ This one is for bootstrap, but there are others that are pretty good. (there's another one I've used before but I can't think of the name... thought it started with an "L".)

I still need to add some dolls, but add the events list, the event details are incomplete but it is easy to edit although the data is saved in a database (mongodb) it is created with https://summernote.org, which works like word, but transforms the content to html.
