Four years ago, when this survey began, we aimed to grow its reach to become more representative of everyone that uses rich text editors, and integrates these essential components into their software. In 2024 that goal takes another step forward, to also be more representative of the future tech that’s impacting our market.
Originally, our intention was to make the survey about the whole RTE sector – not just ourselves – which is why it’s fantastic that its reach has almost doubled, to now provide more comprehensive insights into what motivates, excites, and frustrates the developers who use rich text editors.
With the introduction of LLMs and Generative AI, editing, formatting, checking and writing apps are all set to evolve. Increasingly this technology will be standard inclusions in editing software, so we’re also asking for your ideas about where you see the future going.
As always, while a few survey questions are brand specific, the majority cover general engineering and rich text editing topics, like the languages and frameworks people love or hate, looming market innovations and the rise of collaborative editing.
Once the survey closes and the results are tabulated, in September 2024, the report will be published.
Sharing the survey gives us a clearer vision of the future
In addition to taking the survey yourself, please share the 2024 Rich Text Editing Developer Survey link with every programmer, engineer and developer you know.
Drop the link in your work’s #engineering chat channel, share it on social media and get your community involved however you can – so that the results represent industry-wide feedback from developers, engineers and product managers alike.
The 2024 Rich Text Editing Developer Survey is open until Friday 5 April 2024 and takes about 10 minutes to complete.
We can’t wait to read your thoughts.
