Anyone who has worked in ServiceNow knows this frustration:
You're trying to explain an issue clearly in a comment or work note…
But you can't paste a screenshot properly.
You can't format steps cleanly.
You can't add a nicely labeled hyperlink.
The standard journal fields are mostly plain text. That works for quick updates — but not for detailed explanations, troubleshooting steps, or user guidance.
This project introduces a lightweight rich text editor (Quill) inside a UI Page or modal, allowing users to:
Paste screenshots
Add clickable links
Format text (bold, lists, headers)
Structure troubleshooting steps clearly
Share better, more readable updates
Instead of sending long blocks of unformatted text, teams can communicate in a clearer, more professional way.
