TinyMCE is a powerful and flexible rich text editor that can be embedded in web applications. It provides a wide range of features for text formatting, media embedding, and content management.
Basic Text Formatting
This initializes TinyMCE on a textarea with the ID 'mytextarea', enabling basic text formatting options like bold, italic, underline, and more.
tinymce.init({ selector: '#mytextarea' });Image and Media Embedding
This configuration allows users to embed images and media files into the text editor. The 'image' and 'media' plugins are included, and the toolbar is updated to include buttons for these functionalities.
tinymce.init({ selector: '#mytextarea', plugins: 'image media', toolbar: 'image media' });Custom Toolbar
This example shows how to customize the toolbar with specific buttons for undo, redo, text styles, alignment, and indentation.
tinymce.init({ selector: '#mytextarea', toolbar: 'undo redo | styleselect | bold italic | alignleft aligncenter alignright alignjustify | outdent indent' });Content Style Customization
This configuration customizes the content style within the editor, setting the font family and size for the text.
tinymce.init({ selector: '#mytextarea', content_style: 'body { font-family:Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px }' });Autosave Plugin
This example demonstrates the use of the 'autosave' plugin, which automatically saves the content at specified intervals (every 30 seconds in this case).
tinymce.init({ selector: '#mytextarea', plugins: 'autosave', autosave_interval: '30s' });CKEditor 4 is another popular rich text editor that offers a wide range of features similar to TinyMCE.

As TinyMCE transitioned to a modern codebase through 2017 and 2018, many external dependencies were added from previously closed-source projects. This became unwieldy to develop, so in June 2019 the decision was made to bring those projects together in a monorepo.
