Meet Keikai Doc PE
We’re excited to announce the Beta release of Keikai Doc PE — a brand-new, ZK-compatible component that brings simple yet powerful rich text editing capabilities to your web applications.
Keikai Doc PE is perfect for form-style editing (such as email content or blog posts) and Notion-like document experiences. It offers a smooth, intuitive editing interface with essential formatting tools, tables, lists, and more — everything you need to build clean, user-friendly content editors seamlessly within your ZK application.
Why use Keikai Doc PE?
- Seamlessly integrates with your ZK Apps
- Lightweight and self-hosted — fully controllable
- Intuitive WYSIWYG editing experience (editing, formatting, drag & drop layout)
- Great for form-style (blogs, emails) editing and Notion-style documents
- Easy upgrade path to the upcoming Keikai Doc EE, which includes AI assistance, spreadsheet integration, and advanced reporting features
A Fresh Option After CKEditor 4
If you’ve been using ZK CKEditor 4 (which has reached end of support), now is a great time to switch to a supported, forward-looking solution that fits naturally into the ZK ecosystem.
