Comparing Milkdown with other WYSIWYG editors
Blog post from LogRocket
Milkdown is an open-source WYSIWYG Markdown editor designed to be powerful and extensible, with a lightweight core structure that allows for easy customization through a plugin-based system. It supports integration with popular frontend frameworks and offers features such as math and table support, collaboration tools, and a customizable interface. Despite being based on ProseMirror, which provides robust functionality and a supportive community, Milkdown is still in early development and lacks the extensive community backing of competitors like Quill.js, ProseMirror, TinyMCE, and Toast UI. Each of these alternatives has its strengths: Quill.js is known for its simplicity and ease of integration, ProseMirror offers deep customization with its extensible schemas, TinyMCE boasts a comprehensive feature set and enterprise-grade reliability, and Toast UI provides versatile editing modes and strong support for visual data representation. The choice of editor depends on specific project requirements, with Milkdown being a good fit for those seeking a highly customizable Markdown solution, while others may prefer the established communities and feature sets of its competitors.
