Quill Rich Text Editor

Quill is a modern rich text editor built for compatibility and extensibility. It was created by Jason Chen and Byron Milligan and open sourced by Salesforce.com.

To get started, check out the Quill Github Page or jump straight into the demo.

Quickstart

Instantiate a new Quill object with a css selector for the div that should become the editor.

<!-- Create the toolbar container -->
<div id="toolbar">
  <button class="ql-bold">Bold</button>
  <button class="ql-italic">Italic</button>
</div>

<!-- Create the editor container -->
<div id="editor">
  <div>Hello World!</div>
</div>

<!-- Include the Quill library -->
<script src="http://cdn.quilljs.com/latest/quill.js"></script>

<!-- Initialize Quill editor -->
<script>
  var editor = new Quill('#editor');
  editor.addModule('toolbar', { container: '#toolbar' });
</script>

Local Development

Quill's source is in Coffeescript and utilizes Browserify to organize its files.

Installation

npm install -g grunt-cli
npm install

Building

grunt dist - compile and browserify
grunt server - starts a local server that will build and serve assets on the fly

Examples

With the local server (grunt server) running you can try out some minimal examples on:

• localhost:9000/examples/index.html
• localhost:9000/examples/advanced.html

Quill releases also contain these examples as built static files you can try without needing to run the local development server.

Testing

grunt test:unit - runs javascript test suite with Chrome
grunt test:e2e - runs end to end tests with Webdriver + Chrome
grunt test:coverage - run tests measuring coverage with Chrome

Tests are run by Karma and Protractor using Jasmine. Check out Gruntfile.coffee and config/grunt/ for more testing options.
