i want to use Grid editor, becaose i like the idea. But i need to set up some grid editor components. Current starting package does not offering following stuff. For example:
Text editor - we need store <br> and when creating H1 or other simple text elements.It is possible but only this way:
RTE - we need to specify custom background color and styles for the text editing. We need more diferent confguration of RTE editor. One for intro text, other for standard content text (diferent font, color...)
Image - We need component for inserting image - means, which can store alt, size, padding, margin, border, or pre defined style rule.
We know, that we can made components completely from scratch, but is it necessary?
Starting components which are in umbraco are lets say: "basic" but for our purposes are unusable.
Is there any package with good to start components? Or we need to start this kind of "package" from scratch?
The only "package" I know at the moment is the Fanoe starter kit, that comes with Umbraco 7.2 with this somes some predefined grid editors. Perhaps you should take a look that this starter kit if you haven't done it already.
Not sure if this is what you are looking for, but Lee Kelleher and I have recently released a new grid editor that lets you manage complex data using doc types as a blueprint for the data you need to collect.
Grid editors - exists any package?

Hi Michal,
Did you see the documentation about the grid https://our.umbraco.org/documentation/using-umbraco/backoffice-overview/property-editors/built-in-property-editors-v7/Grid-Layout, and specillay how to build your own property editors https://our.umbraco.org/documentation/using-umbraco/backoffice-overview/property-editors/built-in-property-editors-v7/Grid-Layout#Buildyourowneditor.
There are also some documentation about best practices when you are using the grid layout https://our.umbraco.org/Documentation/Using-Umbraco/Backoffice-Overview/Property-Editors/Built-in-Property-Editors-v7/Grid-Layout-Best-Practices
For an example on how to use a bulid in property in Umbraco in new grid property editor, try to see this post. https://our.umbraco.org/forum/umbraco-7/using-umbraco-7/59563-Tutorial-on-creating-custom-grid-editors?p=0#comment202204

Hello,
yes i saw it, i allready created some components.But question is different.
Is there any package with good to start components? Or we need to start this kind of "package of components" from scratch?

Thank you,
Fanoe looks that is in good way, it is good starting example. But i still missing this basic stuff like <br> and spaces and better editor for images.
So lest code...
Thank you again for suggestion.
