What are some alternatives to TinyMCE and Vim?

CodeMirror

CodeMirror is a JavaScript component that provides a code editor in the browser. When a mode is available for the language you are coding in, it will color your code, and optionally help with indentation.

Quill

It is messaging for teams that focus. Designed from the ground up to make you more productive. Everything in Quill is a thread. Focus on a topic, make decisions, and stay in flow. Choose the conversations you care about and safely filter everything else, knowing that you’re not missing out.

jQuery

jQuery is a cross-platform JavaScript library designed to simplify the client-side scripting of HTML.

React

Lots of people use React as the V in MVC. Since React makes no assumptions about the rest of your technology stack, it's easy to try it out on a small feature in an existing project.

AngularJS

AngularJS lets you write client-side web applications as if you had a smarter browser. It lets you use good old HTML (or HAML, Jade and friends!) as your template language and lets you extend HTML’s syntax to express your application’s components clearly and succinctly. It automatically synchronizes data from your UI (view) with your JavaScript objects (model) through 2-way data binding.
