Since they didn't put a demo up on their site, here's one cobbled from their documentation: http://jsbin.com/cazewaxoje/1

I just added a demo: http://trix-editor.org/

You should probably put a link in the README.md in the github repository - it was the first thing I looked for (Cmd+F -> "demo"). Nothing beats a visual experience in case of a frontend library.

Interesting naming. The WYSIWYG rich text editor in Google Docs is named Kix. The engine behind Google Sheets is named Trix.

Is there an open source alternative to Kix? I've been looking for WYSIWYG which has the look and feel of a document processor.

What's wrong with this project?

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Neat, thanks! Literally just this morning I was thinking to myself that I would give just about anything for a high quality OSS rich text editor capable of generating terse, correct HTML output. And here, not even 24 hours later , one just falls into my lap.

There's also ProseMirror [1], which I'm told is very good, and supports extensions of its document model to support things like embedded objects and Markdown, and is designed for collaborative editing -- all document operations are patches that can be sent over the network.

Cool, thanks for the pointer!
