About This Editor

What Is This Site?

This is a free, browser-based WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) HTML editor. It lets you format content visually — like using a word processor — while automatically generating the underlying HTML code. You can then copy that code and paste it into any website, shopping cart, CMS, or email platform that accepts HTML input.

There is nothing to install, no account to create, and no cost to use it. Open the page, type in the editor, click Source, and copy your HTML. That's all there is to it.

Who Is It For?

The editor is designed for anyone who needs to produce HTML but doesn't want — or need — to learn the language. Common users include:

• E-commerce sellers writing product descriptions for Shopify, WooCommerce, eBay, and Amazon.
• Newsletter writers building structured email content for Mailchimp, Klaviyo, and similar platforms.
• Website owners adding custom HTML to CMS pages without touching raw code directly.
• Educators and trainers creating structured course and lesson content in HTML format.
• Developers who want a quick way to prototype an HTML snippet without a code editor.

Why Is It Free?

The editor is supported by display advertising. The underlying technology, FCKeditor, is an open-source project released under the GNU LGPL v2.1 license, which allows anyone to use, modify, and distribute it freely. Providing it for free online costs us very little, and the value to users who would otherwise struggle to write HTML manually is significant.

Who Built It?

This site was created and is maintained by Red Peach Designs, a web design and development studio. The editor has been online since 2004, serving users who need a quick, no-fuss way to generate HTML content.

The WYSIWYG editor engine itself is FCKeditor v2.3.2, developed by Frederico Caldeira Knabben and the FCKeditor open-source community.

What Is WYSIWYG?

WYSIWYG is an acronym for What You See Is What You Get. It refers to editing interfaces where the visual output of the editor matches what the final rendered result will look like. When you make text bold in a WYSIWYG editor, it displays as bold immediately — you don't need to type <strong> tags manually.

WYSIWYG editors became popular in the early 2000s as a way to make content creation on the web accessible to non-technical users. They remain widely used today in CMS platforms, email builders, and standalone tools like this one.
