Question

I would like to add Hebrew language support, and to translate it.

Additionally, you should support the "direction" property in order to allow Right to Left language support for display: https://www.w3schools.com/cssref/pr_text_direction.asp

Thanks for reporting this, @Tal500.

Great suggestion about HE(Hebrew) Language support! While this specific feature isn't yet in the core API, there are several ways to achieve similar behavior.

Using the event system:

editor.on('component:update', (component) => {
  // your logic here
});

Alternative approaches:

  • Listen to selector:add for CSS selector changes
  • Use selector:custom for custom rules
  • Tap into the change:* events for fine-grained tracking
  • Build a plugin that extends the editor with this capability

Making it official: If this feature would benefit many users, consider opening a formal Feature Request on the GrapesJS repo with:

  • A detailed use case
  • Code example showing the desired behavior
  • Why this matters for your workflow

The core team is receptive to well-motivated feature requests backed by real use cases.
