Ask HN: Best WYSIWIG?

12 points by martinshen ↗ HN
To date we've used either markdown or HTML. We need to transition to something more user friendly for our merchants. Suggested WYSIWIG?

I've had issues in the past with WYSIWIGs producing poor quality or even confusing HTML. Any suggestions or recommendations?

We're looking at these 3 right now: http://imperavi.com/redactor/ http://ckeditor.com/ http://www.tinymce.com/

I'm a big fan of redactor. I'm using it for both of my projects right now. While it's not perfect, it's certainly the best that I've found. In some cases I do use tinymce because it has better browser support.

We've been leaning towards Redactor. Main concern isn't browser support but clean HTML.

Check out Wysihtml5. We've been using over the last few months and found it ok. We had a strict requirement on good quality HTML, and so far, Wysihtml5 seems nice.

I've used ckeditor for years and been happy with it.
