Wyzz is a very small, very
light WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) Editor for use in your web
applications. It's written in JavaScript, and is free (as in speech and
as in beer) for you to use in your web applications and/or alter to
your needs (see the licence conditions).
There
are quite a few WYSIWYG editors around, many of them free - and some of
them, such as FCK Editor, TinyMCE and others, are really excellent.
Unfortunately, most of them are quite heavyweight applications in their
own right.
Our goal with Wyzz is to create an Ultra-Lite (<10k!) WYSIWYG editor that's also a breeze to implement.
Unfortunately,
it therefore won't have all of the functions of the more complex
editors; but in many application, these are superfluous anyway.
Where did Wyzz Come From?
Wyzz
was born from my own requirement for a lightweight WYSIWYG editor for
my own applications, including a small CMS, a webmail client and a
small intranet-based document management system. Much of the
inspiration for Wyzz has come from OpenWYSIWYG, another open-source
WYSIWYG project, and I thank the contributors to that effort for
getting me interested in writing one.
