Flask-Admin and CKEditor WYSIWYG textarea integration. Basically, all you have to do: 1. Create new wtforms widget which will emit 'ckeditor' class 2. Make new wtforms field which will use this widget 3. Create new jinja2 template, which includes ckeditor javascript 4. Tell flask-admin to use new field and new template
