We are looking for a good HTML Editor provider we can use in our MVC custom module.
Just like the CKEditor that is used in the Text/Html module.. so with DNN integration for upload image and internal links (pages dropdown).

I know the CKEditor can do this but we need one that we can use in custom MVC modules (not .aspx)

Is there a CKeditor for DNN version for MVC or does any know/build/uses another Editor for custom modules?

Please help...

You might take a look at how 2sxc does editors. I seem to recall several choices.

Thanks that editor looks good...

Can't find the recent github project tinymce for DNN.
I found one from whaleteam but it's 8 years old: https://github.com/WhaleTeam/dnn-tinymce

How do I get the tinymce editor provider code for DNN 9?

There is no seperate provider for tinyMCE that has been updated, AFAIK.
As you are actually not looking to integrate it in DNN platform but your own module(s), you are basically in the same position as 2SIC.
I would advice you to take a look at their github to check how they include tinyMCE. Or wait for 6 weeks and ask Daniel when he returns from holiday.

I asked Daniel, his answer: As of now I don't know of any such provider

Maybe it's the new Editor for DNN 10? or another vendor is using this editor

There must be an alternative editor...

I assume more DNN module developers run into this issue in MVC?
