Are there any rich text editing libraries which can be used with HTML5 canvas? I have tried looking into:

  1. Hallo Editor It points to createjs.org which is not a canvas library. http://bergie.iki.fi/blog/hallo-editor/
  2. Froala (Awesome library with lots of features) https://www.froala.com/wysiwyg-editor/inline

I am looking something similar which works with HTML5 Canvas element.

HTML5 Canvas is not a good target for rich text, since its capabilities are super limited. There are tons of great HTML DOM solutions, so the best option if you have a canvas app is to use something like the EaselJS DOMElement to wrap DOM-based elements, and control them like a child of the EaselJS display list.
