Inline Edit brings true in-place editing back to Drupal. Click "Edit" on any page and change content right where it is displayed — text becomes directly editable in place, while structured fields like dates, selects, or images swap to their regular Drupal widgets at the exact spot where they are rendered. No separate form page, no sidebar, no page reload: the page you see is the page you edit.

Under the hood, Inline Edit is built on the HTMX toolset that ships with Drupal core since 11.3, following the direction of the "Replace AJAX API with HTMX" community initiative. Which fields are editable is controlled through a dedicated form mode, so site builders configure everything with familiar Drupal tools — field access, validation, and text format handling are always enforced server-side. A pluggable save handler architecture allows other modules to alter the save flow, for example to create moderated revisions instead of saving directly.

The initial scope targets common single-value field types on content entities; There is also a submodule for paragraphs and paragraphs layout support.

🚨 This module was heavily built with AI 🚨

but of course Drupal best practices in mind. Still it was done with AI and this needs to be transparent communictated.
