TinyMCE (Tiny Moxiecode Content Editor) is a platform-independent, browser-based WYSIWYG editor control, written in JavaScript and released as open-source software under the LGPL by Ephox. It has the ability to convert HTML textarea fields or other HTML elements to editor instances. TinyMCE is designed to easily integrate with content management systems, including Django, Drupal, Joomla!, WordPress, and SOY CMS.
Core features
It offers HTML formatting tools, like bold, italic, underline, ordered and unordered lists, different types of alignments, in-line placement of images and videos, etc. It allows users to edit HTML documents online. The different options can be configured at the time of integration with a project, which improves the flexibility of a project.
Browser compatibility
TinyMCE is compatible with multiple browsers, including Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Safari, Opera and Google Chrome, across multiple operating systems.[2]
API
TinyMCE includes an extensive API for custom integration.[3]
Plugins
TinyMCE ships with an assortment of plugins.[4] Because TinyMCE is meant to be a client-side application, it does not include native file managers for various server technologies. Several file manager solutions exist, including several proprietary projects developed by Ephox, as well as a handful of open source file manager solutions.

Compressor
TinyMCE also has an optional compressor pack to reduce the overall script download footprint, in the time it takes the script to initialize. The compressor pack is available for PHP, ASPX, JSP, and CFM. A third-party Ruby on Rails compressor pack is also available.[7]
