Best Wysiwyg Text Editor?


Curious what do you use in your work or project. Would like to know what your reasoning is

I will assume you are talking about on-line web text editors - I found NicEdit to be what I needed, compact and no external dependencies or licensing hassles - http://nicedit.com/ - wish it was still actively updated but what it has is good.

Haven't used it for a while, and it is for RTF files, but I quite liked Ted: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ted_(word_processor)

I loved the simple UI, and it seems like a great example of One Thing Well.

I assume you’re asking about a library not a word processor. Here’s a list:

MS Word - almost everyone knows it.

At work we need a standard application. We cannot have each person with their own unique application as we do not have enough IT support people to handle that.

We do not use the online version as internet is not reliable enough for that.
