Easy to use
Draftail is easy to use regardless of skill level. All rich text formatting is available via the toolbar, and keyboard shortcuts. Power users can even use Markdown!
Extensible
Rich text shouldn't be a black box. Custom extensions for a specific use case shouldn't be a headache. Draftail comes with an extensive API backed by Draft.js and React.
Word-friendly
Paste content from Word. Or just about any editor. Draftail will only keep the formatting you care about, and discard any cruft. See it in action.
Ready for translations
All of the editor's labels can easily be translated. Have a look at our example with react-intl.
Theming
Draftail's UI is very simple to customise, so it integrates perfectly within your app. Take a look at the UI theming docs.
Powering Wagtail
Draftail is the default rich text editor of Wagtail, a Django content management system used by hundreds of organisations.
