What does your rich text editor
give you?
There are three approaches to WYSIWYG text
editor customization
Build everything yourself
Limited feature set and plugins +
build the rest
Expansive feature-set + ample
drop-in plugins
Your editor has to look sharp. It must perform miracles. And create magic for its users.
To do all that, you need full access to the code base and the ability to customize its look and feel, while still controlling the functionality.
Of the 5 most popular alternative rich text editors, TinyMCE:
- Is an out-of-the-box JavaScript-based text editor
- Has an expansive feature-set and ample plugins
- Fits all kinds of use cases
A default set of toolbar options is provided to get you started – then configure it (using custom configs, your own code, and APIs) to suit whatever UX demands your users throw at your editor.

vs self-build a rich text editor
Ready-to-use editors
Fully customizable solution which, if open source, comes with core features plus advanced features such as tables, full image support, etc.
All come with full UI, some have custom mobile optimization to adjust and fit into any UI environment.
Full access to code base (TinyMCE + CKEditor), APIs and UI customization options. Simplifies and lowers amount (and cost) of custom setup work, use case based specializations, user customizations and ongoing maintenance.
Editor options:
Editor framework plus
Code base access varies, so the level of customization fluctuates across different editors.
Considered limited in their feature-set and have a smaller selection of features that fail to satisfy more complex use cases.
Any attempt to expand or customize the in-built limitations of these editors, requires more custom coded build-out, longer development time and deep domain knowledge to set up and satisfy use case specific requirements.
Editor options:
Headless frameworks
Provide a foundation devoid of any UI, and usually also any features over and above the simple bold, italic, underline style features.
To configure, build-out, and extend the editor (not to mention build your own customized UI) you have full access to the code base and no need to work around a predetermined user interface.
However, deep domain knowledge of rich text editor complexities and UI expertise is needed, plus ample development time for bug fixes, edge cases.

+ Estimate of the cost of building the basic open source components of three leading rich text editors (excluding advanced features and plugins, maintenance and extensibility work)
^ Using a normalized COCOMO Model, the estimated engineering requirements for building a single clean copy-paste advanced feature (excludes maintenance and extensibility work)
A person-month is equivalent to approximately 160 hours of labor, and is the amount of work performed by a single average worker in one month (ie. 12 person-month project will take 4 developers 3 months work to finish). A person-year is the total effort in person-months divided by twelve, to estimate the project length in years.
