Base Distribution

Since there are some features we'd like to achieve that aren't supported in Aloha and the fact that Drupal ditched Aloha after closely working with them in favor of CKEditor (http://buytaert.net/from-aloha-to-ckeditor).

Example of CKEditor inline editing http://ckeditor.com/demo#inline

Wanted features: Cut, copy, paste, redo, undo, find, replace, bold, italic, underlined, strikethrough, sup, sub, remove format, ul/ol lists, increase/reduce indent, text positioning (left, center, right, justify), insert links, tables, horizontal ruler, block format (h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, formatted, address, normal, article, aside, container, header, navigation, blockquote), font-family, font-size, font-color, background-color, source mode (HTML).

Aloha¶

• Already integrated
• Existing link plugin
• Close connection to development team

• Not so solid user experience
• Missing wanted features
  • Redo, undo, find, replace, increase/reduce indent, text positioning (left, center, right, justify), font-family, font-size, font-color, background-color, source mode (HTML)
• Unable to re-use for textarea (RTE)

CKEditor¶

• Supports all wanted features
• Same editor for inline editing and textarea (RTE)
• Already working with create.js (Implemented by Bergie)
• Can be used instead of both Aloha and Hallo
  • Simple editing options for headlines
  • Advanced editing options for text
• More solid user experience
• Larger community / more developers / more extensions
• Better default design

• Not already implemented
• Missing link plugin
