WYSIWYG capabilities #222
Description
As an author who is used to the ways of AEM and Dexter, I need WYSIWYG capabilities to ease me into "new ways of doing things". This is also required for business users who are not in the business of content management and just want to get a page out there.
Today the entire AEM world relies on content management through WYSIWYG capabilities. I am logging this theme for us to discuss how to achieve this in the Helix world. We would need to come up with a new way of achieving self service to preview the final content / page I am authoring.
I need an easy way of viewing the final result of what I am authoring along the way. While the workflow of bringing pages to life may be different with Helix, I still need the capabilities to see what my fonts, design / navigation and other styles would look like while I am putting a page together.
Requirements:
Need a way to author and preview pages while authoring them
Need a way to preview how forms would look like on the page inline with other content
Need a way to preview images, videos, controls (buttons, etc.), animations etc. appear on the page inline with other content.
Support for previewing the actual fonts on the page.
This would be required for newer users / authors who do not have professional content authoring experience.
