Scribe Editor information
What is Scribe Editor?
A lightweight inline rich text editor designed for applications where users edit content directly on the page.
Instead of focusing on large feature sets or complex document models, ScribeJS focuses on editing correctness and predictable behavior. It normalizes browser selection differences and keeps formatting state synchronized with real content, helping avoid common issues where toolbars show incorrect formatting state.
The editor is designed to be embeddable, fast to load, and suitable for modern web apps that need inline editing without shipping large editor frameworks.
Key Features
- Accurate formatting state detection
- Cross-browser selection normalization
- Reliable handling of complex text selections
- True inline editing experience
- Small and embeddable footprint
It is suitable for content tools, CMS platforms, builders, and applications that require predictable inline text editing behavior.
