Salesforce Rich Text Editor

How to unlock the power of CKEditor

Gist Here

When editing Rich Text fields, Salesforce employs a library called CKEditor, a popular WYSIWYG text editor used in a variety of web applications. You can customize CKEditor to your liking when you embed it in a page, and Salesforce has really stripped down its functionality in many ways.

We can (mostly) fix that!

SFDX Is Pretty Awesome

Salesforce has released some new tooling that I’ve been playing with, and in particular the new command line utility sfdx. It offers a lot of features that were previously unheard of, impossible, or only available with the use of MavensMate, which is a great product, but 1st party support beats all.

If you haven’t heard of this (it was news to me) I urge you to check it out:

I’m not going to be able to get much use out of this any time soon, but I was so excited that I started working on a VSCode plugin to leverage the new CLI. Its pretty limited so far, but it accomplishes the one major task I wanted out of the extension - it creates new Apex classes and Lightning resources with a couple clicks.

Its been published to the VS Marketplace, and you can check my Github for the source:
