A weekend side project done by kenshin54 and myself, hope it is working for you. And it's far more powerful than it presents.

Seems to lack a license. I'm assuming the intention was to make this open source?

Anyway, great work! Many similarities in the UI to my http://hallojs.org/ editor. I'd love to integrate this with Create.js if you can clarify the license question...

Pretty cool! Reminds me of the UI on medium.com (selecting text on view mode allows sharing and commenting, and on edit mode pops up a floating format toolbar).

Would you add the ability to export the HTMl code?

Could use a bit of a margin on the bottom of the menu. It tends to sit over the text, either partially or completely which probably isn't really the expected behavior for an edit menu.

Looks cool! Does it support inserting images?

Yeah, Medium's editor just give us the spark, and kenshin54 said he can make it cooler, and here it is.

You need to add an 's' at the end of "provide".

Looks interesting! A few thoughts to make a bit nicer to use: it could be much smaller, and flow slightly higher above the text. Also the animations between different modes (for text align, etc) should be faster so I don't feel like I'm waiting on it.

Great start, might use this for something!
