Hallo is a simple in-place rich text editor widget for jQuery UI built on HTML5 contentEditable, written in CoffeeScript. Formatting features like bold and italic are provided via optional plugins rather than the core widget.
Use cases
- make paragraphs editable in place on a web page
- add a lightweight rich text editor to a jQuery UI app
- build a minimal contenteditable WYSIWYG editor
- let users edit CMS content directly on the page
- add bold/italic formatting toolbar to editable regions
When to choose
- you already use jQuery and jQuery UI and want a tiny, pluggable in-place editor
- you need a liberally licensed (MIT) simple alternative to heavyweight editors like Aloha
When to avoid
- starting a new project - the project is unmaintained and depends on legacy jQuery/jQuery UI and Rangy
- you need a modern editor with active support, accessibility guarantees, or framework integrations
