			<h1>WYSIWYG Web Editor</h1>

			<p>I need a WYSIWYG web editor for <a href="freedit.html">FreedIt</a>.  I have looked at the numerous modern options and of course they are all horrible.  The best I could find was <a href="https://www.tiny.cloud/">TinyMCE</a> and I spent about 2 weeks trying to make this bloated pig work, but gave up.</p>

			<p>So instead I focused on finding something with readable code.  And I found <a href="https://www.sceditor.com/">SCEditor</a> which has readable code and also supports BBCode which is a benefit for FreedIt.  But this needs work.  It is not well supported, has bugs, and needs improvements.  So I <a href="https://hg.reactionary.software/repo/sceditor/">forked the code</a> and I will work on improving it until it is usable.</p>

			<p>Of course if someone volunteered to take over this project, I would be thrilled.  It is a nice small stand-alone Javascript project.  But I won't hold my breath and I assume I will end up doing it.  I have other work, so I will only do this during my free time.</p>
