    Summernote

    Summernote is a JavaScript library that helps you create WYSIWYG editors online.

    Home page: https://summernote.org

    Why Summernote?

    Summernote has a few special features:

    • Paste images from clipboard
    • Saves images directly in the content of the field using base64 encoding, so you don't need to implement image handling at all
    • Simple UI
    • Interactive WYSIWYG editing
    • Handy integration with server
    • Supports Bootstrap 3, 4 and 5 integrations
    • Lots of plugins and connectors provided together

    Installation and dependencies

    Summernote is built on jQuery.

    1. Include JS/CSS

    Include the following code in the <head> tag of your HTML:

    <!-- include libraries(jQuery, bootstrap) -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="//code.jquery.com/jquery-3.6.0.min.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="//cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/bootstrap@5.0.2/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/bootstrap@5.0.2/dist/js/bootstrap.bundle.min.js"></script>

<!-- include summernote css/js-->
<link href="summernote-bs5.css" rel="stylesheet">
<script src="summernote-bs5.js"></script>

    2. Target a element

    Then place a div tag somewhere in the body tag. This element will be replaced with the summernote editor.

    <div id="summernote">Hello Summernote</div>

    3. Summernote it!

    Finally, run this script after the DOM is ready:

    $(document).ready(function() {
  $('#summernote').summernote();
});

    For more examples, please visit to homepage.

    API

    code - get the HTML source code underlying the text in the editor:

    var html = $('#summernote').summernote('code');

    For more detail about API, please refer to document.

    Warning - code injection

    The code view allows the user to enter script contents. Make sure to filter/sanitize the HTML on the server. Otherwise, an attacker can inject arbitrary JavaScript code into clients.
