Project mention: WYSIWYG editor for a new Rails project | /r/rails | 2023-12-10

The MediumEditor clone looks great, but I wanted a traditional toolbar and the last commit it seems was 3+ years ago.

• TinyMCE

  41 14,367 9.7 TypeScript

  The world's #1 JavaScript library for rich text editing. Available for React, Vue and Angular

  

Project mention: TinyMCE (also) moving from MIT to GPL | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-03-27

TinyMCE provided a bit more information about this change in a GitHub discussion thread here: https://github.com/tinymce/tinymce/discussions/9496

As I posted there, this directly affects my open source project which is heavily tied to TinyMCE so I may end up forking, and reducing down to what my project needs to reduce maintenance scope & burden.

TinyMCE have been jumping around with their licensing. They were under LGPL, with some (what I believe were) misleading guidance into meeting the LGPL (they specified rules about keeping specific branding elements). They then jumped to MIT, and since moved some of the open plugins to their commercial offering. Now they're making this change.
