Turn any form or content area into a professional writing workspace. This component recreates the rich text editing experience users expect from modern apps, with formatting tools, auto-save, and real-time editing that keeps content creation smooth and frustration-free.

Why it works:

People need to format text. Whether they're writing blog posts, leaving feedback, or creating documentation, plain text boxes feel limiting and outdated. This editor gives users the tools they expect—bold, italic, headings, lists, colors—without overwhelming them. The familiar toolbar interface means zero learning curve.

What you get:

Complete formatting toolkit - Bold, italic, underline, strikethrough, headings (H1-H6)

Text styling controls - Font families, sizes, text colors, and highlight colors

List management - Bullet lists and numbered lists with indent controls

Alignment options - Left, center, right, and justified text alignment

Advanced features - Subscript, superscript, blockquotes, and code blocks

Undo/Redo - Full history tracking so mistakes disappear instantly

Auto-save - Configurable intervals (30s to 10min) so work never gets lost

Multiple themes - Snow, Bubble, and Modern presets in light and dark modes

Character counter - Track progress with optional maximum length limits

Output formats - Export as HTML, Markdown, Plain Text, or JSON

Read-only mode - Perfect for displaying formatted content

External CMS integration - Webhook support for saving to headless CMS platforms (note: does not integrate with Framer's native CMS)

Draft system - Save work-in-progress with draft status indicators

Responsive toolbar - Adapts to any screen size with smart overflow handling

Word wrapping - Proper text flow that never breaks your layout

Clean paste - Option to strip formatting when pasting from other sources

Custom sanitization - Three security levels to control allowed HTML tags

Headless CMS content creation (Contentful, Strapi, Sanity, etc.)

Why this beats basic text areas:

Your users are used to Google Docs, Notion, and modern writing tools. A plain text box feels like stepping back in time. This editor meets expectations instantly—no explanation needed. The save button changes color when content is saved, the character count updates in real-time, and the familiar icons work exactly as expected. It's the editing experience people already know, dropped directly into your Framer project.

CMS Integration (Important Note):

This component supports external CMS platforms through webhook integration, meaning you can connect it to headless CMS solutions like Contentful, Strapi, Sanity, Airtable, or any custom backend API. However, it does not integrate with Framer's native CMS. If you need to manage content within Framer's built-in CMS system, this component isn't designed for that workflow. Instead, use this for custom forms, user-generated content, feedback systems, or when connecting to external content management platforms.

Technical stuff (for the curious):

Built with pure React, no external dependencies beyond Lucide icons. Three theme presets fully customizable with your brand colors. Responsive design works on mobile, tablet, and desktop. HTML sanitization prevents XSS attacks. History system with 50-step undo. Debounced auto-save prevents server overload. Content editable implementation with proper word wrapping and overflow handling. Webhook-based saves send POST requests with JSON payload containing content, draft status, timestamps, and collection names.

Setup:

Add component to your Framer project

Choose your theme preset and colors

Configure toolbar buttons (use presets or go custom)

Set auto-save interval if needed

Connect webhook URL for your external CMS or backend

Done

That's it. Fully visual configuration, no coding required.

Customization options:

Theme modes: Light or dark

Three preset themes: Snow (clean), Bubble (modern), Modern (minimal)

Toolbar positions: Top or bottom

Toolbar styles: Flat, outlined, or rounded buttons

Height control: Fixed height or auto-expand

Three toolbar presets: Basic (essentials only), Standard (most-used tools), Advanced (everything), or Custom (pick exactly what you want)

Output sanitization: Strict, moderate, or permissive HTML filtering

Accent colors: Match your brand perfectly

Adjustable padding, font size, and line height

Pro tips:

Enable auto-save for any form longer than a paragraph. Use the Markdown output format if you're storing content in a headless CMS. Set max length to prevent users from writing novels in feedback forms. Enable "clean paste" to avoid formatting chaos when users copy from Word or Google Docs. Connect to Zapier or Make.com webhooks to automatically route content to multiple platforms simultaneously.

Stop making users fight with plain text boxes. Give them the editing experience they deserve.
