Me and my company are looking for an alternative to CKEditor to use in our CMS. Preferably we would like something a bit more up to date and significantly more lightweight.

We're a rails 3.2 shop, so something that integrates easily with rails would be nice.

Really we are just looking for the formatting features, and possibly image uploading (though we have an api, so this might be difficult) via integration with paperclip.

So far we've seen

  • CKEditor
  • TinyMCE
  • Markdown

Does anyone have any suggestions or thoughts?

Thanks!
