Hi Ahmed,

niceedit completed development in 2015, it would be great to see appgini updated to ckeditor or something.

I checked some editors recently to consider replacing nicedit ... the main criterion I'm looking for is a lightweight editor packaged as a single js file (with perhaps one css and one icons file max), all under 100KB. I checked Summernote and Trumbowyg as they met that criterion and looked promising ... Unfortunately, they have several buggy behaviors and overall, no big improvement over nicedit. ckEditor is a huge package with a lot of files, totaling 760KB for the "basic" package in its zipped format. I don't like to include all this huge package for just one component. So, I'm still researching other lightweight options.

Hello Dear Sirs,

I understand that nicEdit is much smother for the application but for the employees that are using the applications it is much easier summernote; it is much more interactive especially for pictures & tables which are very much used.

I succedded to implement the summernote in templateDV but I did not succeded to do it in footer-extras & table-dv.js files in order not to remain in the application after each update.

In is possible to point some hints please.


Thank you in advance
Ionut Bocanet
Best Regards,
Ionut Bocanet
