User blog comment:Brandon Rhea/SWFanon is beta testing the VisualEditor feature/@comment-3528596-20131028021052

Now I've only messed around with the editor a little bit, and I haven't published any edits using the visual editor, but I have a few things to say. First, I think it's better than the current one. I'm a source mode guy, always have been, mostly because I find it is the easiest way to see what I'm doing and make changes. That's what I didn't like about the classic editor. I felt it was way too hard to visualize what the page would look like, what with the way templates were handled. I like this new way much better. Editing existing templates is very easy and quite nice. One thing I can't figure out (not that I've tried hard) is how to add a new template. I'm sure there is a way, but perhaps it should be more obvious if someone like me can't figure it out without looking it up. Just a though. :) Also, I like the "page settings" with the categories and default sort. It seems very easy and straight forward. The button for adding images (or media, whatever) seems to be glitching in that, while it adds images, the title there is a long string "&lt;visualeditor-wikiamediainsertbuttontool-label&gt;" next to the icon as part of the button. I assume it is supposed to have a more...normal... name.

So yeah. That's what I've got so far. Pretty nice as of now, and I'm sure it'll get better with time. Hope this helps a little!
