Description

Squire is a lightweight and highly adaptable HTML5 rich text editor that ensures robust cross-browser normalization. Designed with a focus on current and future needs, it does not cater to outdated browsers, functioning effectively with versions such as Opera 10, Firefox 3.5, Safari 4, Chrome 9, and IE8. Unlike other HTML5 editors, Squire is specifically crafted as a component for creating documents like emails and essays, rather than for developing WYSIWYG websites. If you require features for inserting form controls or multimedia elements like Flash, you will need to consider other options. Nonetheless, for a variety of writing tasks, Squire offers the necessary capabilities without unnecessary complexity, making it a practical choice for many users. Its simplicity and efficiency make it an appealing option for those who prioritize performance in their writing tools.

Description

The Editing team's VisualEditor initiative strives to develop a dependable rich-text editor for MediaWiki. This editor, which can be utilized as a MediaWiki extension with the assistance of the Parsoid project for HTML+RDFa, is designed in such a way that its core functionality can operate independently of MediaWiki, Parsoid, or Node.js. Since 2020, VisualEditor has been accessible to all users on MediaWiki.org and is also available on nearly all versions of Wikipedia and Wikivoyage. For many other Wikimedia projects and languages, it functions as an optional Beta Feature for logged-in users. Although VisualEditor is accessible in certain namespaces, such as the main namespace, it is typically not available in discussion or template namespaces. The issue of declining new contributor growth is perceived as one of the most significant challenges confronting the Wikimedia movement. To address this, VisualEditor was developed to eliminate unnecessary technical barriers related to Wikimedia's editing interface, which is seen as essential for boosting the number of contributors to Wikimedia projects. By simplifying the editing process, the project aims not only to enhance user experience but also to foster a more inviting environment for potential contributors.
