Compare TinyMCE and CKeditor for a Wiki

Question

For a custom wiki django-wakawaka, i want to be able to add a WYSIWYG support.

TinyMCE is obviously the most popular plugin, used even by Wordpress.

But CK-e

Answer 1

Because of the fact that my Internship has something to do with the CKEditor. I have been developing a lot with CKEditor the last 4 months. And as my research said: If we Compare TinyMCE and the CKEditor 4.x There aren't any big difference. The only differences are: CKEditor has a smoother layout and design, CKEditor has a lot bigger community (If i remember it right a difference of 13k (35k vs 50k i remember, something like that) and CKEditor has multiple developers. The last argument is an argument that i'm not sure off. But i have been told that TinyMCE is being developed by only 1 or 2 persons and the CKEditor by multiple (and an entire community!)

If you ask me, all in favor for the CKEditor.

The negative point that is stated once above, that the documentation isn't what it is used to be since the new version. I don't really agree. The only thing is that you need to read the API. With JAVA (as example) you won't find a full explanation neither. And the nice thing is that, I and many other persons are posting questions on StackOverflow. This will support all the support you need. And for the basics almost everything is there already!

And if we have a problem, there is always one of the Core developers of the CKEditor to help us out ;)
