## What it is
Aloha Editor is a JavaScript HTML5 WYSIWYG content editing library that allows editing of web content directly in the browser. It is plugin-based, built on jQuery and RequireJS, and supports in-place editing of text, images, and other media on live websites.

## Use cases
- embed a wysiwyg rich text editor in a web page
- let users edit cms content directly on the site
- in-place html5 content editing in the browser
- build a custom rich text editor with plugins
- edit text and images on a live portal without a separate admin backend

## When to choose
- you need browser-based in-place WYSIWYG editing of HTML5 content
- you want a plugin-based editor you can extend with custom functionality
- you are integrating editing into an existing CMS or portal

## When to avoid
- you need a modern, actively developed editor with current framework integrations
- you require a permissive open-source license for commercial use
- you want a lightweight editor without legacy dependencies like jQuery and RequireJS
