CKEditor
CKEditor is a rich-text WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) editor designed for web applications, allowing users to create and edit formatted content directly in a browser. It provides a user-friendly interface with toolbar buttons for text formatting, media insertion, and other common editing tasks, often used in content management systems, forums, and online forms. The editor is highly customizable and supports various plugins to extend its functionality.
Developers should use CKEditor when building web applications that require user-generated content with rich formatting, such as blogs, CMS platforms, or collaborative tools, as it simplifies content creation without requiring HTML knowledge from end-users. It is particularly valuable for projects needing a reliable, cross-browser compatible editor with extensive documentation and community support, and its integration with frameworks like React or Angular makes it suitable for modern web development.
