Jodit
What it is
Jodit is a TypeScript WYSIWYG editor for web, self-hosted, and API use. Its free MIT-licensed core includes more than 70 built-in plugins, custom toolbar and theming, semantic HTML output, table editing, and media handling. Images can come from uploads, URLs, a file browser, or base64 data URIs; iframe, video, and audio elements can also be embedded or manipulated. The maker describes Jodit as dependency-free, with a minified size under 400 KB. Integration examples cover React, Angular, Vue, Yii2, Joomla, TypeScript, and JavaScript, plus elFinder, a Node.js connector, and AWS S3 uploads. Jodit PRO adds PDF export, Word and Excel paste, autocomplete, mentions, and a file finder. The self-hosted editor collects no telemetry, and content and personal data do not reach the maker’s servers. License checks run locally, with an optional fallback sending only the license key and host name.
