Froala Editor vs Jodit

Froala Editor is a JavaScript WYSIWYG HTML editor for adding rich-text editing to applications. It supports paragraph formats, lists, custom paragraph styles, quotes, and special characters, alongside image uploads and editing, video embeds, file uploads, and server-side file management. Froala says it supports more than 15 frameworks and technology stacks, with integration guides for JavaScript, React, Django, Vue, WordPress, and others. The editor runs inside the customer’s application, so editor content stays on the customer’s infrastructure. Froala says it sanitizes content, filters malicious scripts, validates URLs, and supports strict Content Security Policy configurations from version 5.2. Plans list AI Assist, version history, comments, and Markdown support. A 30-day trial is available, but there is no free plan. Professional is $60 a month billed annually and covers one product and three domains; Enterprise is $117 a month billed annually with unlimited products and domains. Perpetual options cost 2159.00 USD and $4,199, paid once, respectively.

Jodit is a TypeScript WYSIWYG editor for web, self-hosted, and API deployments. Its free MIT-licensed core includes more than 70 built-in plugins, custom toolbar and theming options, and semantic HTML output. The editor supports table editing and media handling, including images added by upload, URL, file browser, or base64 data URI, plus iframe, video, and audio elements. The maker describes Jodit as dependency-free with a minified size under 400 KB. Framework examples include React, Angular, Vue, Yii2, Joomla, TypeScript, and JavaScript, with integrations for elFinder, a Node.js connector, and AWS S3 uploads. Jodit PRO adds PDF export, Word and Excel paste, autocomplete, mentions, and a file finder. Self-hosted use collects no telemetry, and license validation runs locally. The free plan costs nothing.
