ProseMirror VS TinyMCE

Tiptap is an open source headless wrapper around ProseMirror. ProseMirror is a toolkit for building rich text WYSIWYG editors. The best part about Tiptap is that it's headless, which means you can customize and create your rich text editor however you want. I'll be using TailwindCSS for this tutorial.

For those that don't know the author, Marijn Haverbeke, is the creator of CodeMirror (code editor) and later ProseMirror (text editor).

Behind the scenes, Vrite processes the content and makes it accessible in ProseMirror-based JSON format, including the type and all the props of the Element block.

No good tool is built without using good tools, and Vrite Editor is no different. Before getting into WYSIWYG editors, I extensively researched available RTE frameworks, that could provide the tooling and functionality I was looking for. Ultimately, I picked TipTap and underlying ProseMirror — IMO, the best tools currently available for all kinds of WYSIWYG editors.

A little dissapointed to see ProseMirror not mentioned.

It's an amazing rich-text editing toolkit that provides all the bits and pieces needed to write any kind of rich-text editor. Tiptap is a wrapper over ProseMirror for minimizing the vast API surface and providing simpler configurations.

The project is using TipTap and that is mentioned.

The buttons had to be absolutely positioned, which required both a custom TipTap extension and tapping deeper into the underlying ProseMirror (both libraries powering the Vrite editor).

You might have noticed that the body_markdown property is set to the result of processContent() call. That’s because the Vrite API serves its content in a JSON format. Derived from the ProseMirror library powering Vrite editor, the format allows for versatile content delivery as it can be easily adapted to various needs.

We've fixed 18 bugs and made several enhancements in TinyMCE 7.1. Details of these fixes are available in our Changelog.

TinyMCE provided a bit more information about this change in a GitHub discussion thread here: https://github.com/tinymce/tinymce/discussions/9496

As I posted there, this directly affects my open source project which is heavily tied to TinyMCE so I may end up forking, and reducing down to what my project needs to reduce maintenance scope & burden.

TinyMCE have been jumping around with their licensing. They were under LGPL, with some (what I believe were) misleading guidance into meeting the LGPL (they specified rules about keeping specific branding elements). They then jumped to MIT, and since moved some of the open plugins to their commercial offering. Now they're making this change.

TinyMCE 7 includes fixes for 17 bug fixes reported by the community. See the changelog for details.

TinyMCE - rich text editing API. Core features are free for unlimited usage.

Any idea how i could replace the current classic editor with the newest tinymce wyswig editor: https://www.tiny.cloud/ it looks so modern and clean and i would love to use it but the default wordpress classic editor is so old and is some really old version of tinymce and I'm unsure of how to change it, any plugins or scripts to do this?

Any idea how i could disable the default crappy wordpres ugtenbergs block and instead replace it with the newest tinymce wyswig editor: https://www.tiny.cloud/ it looks so modern and clean and i would love to use it but the default wordpress classic editor is so old and honestly makes me sick, any plugins or scripts to do this?

Luckily, implementing a basic text editor in your React application is a fairly straightforward process. In this article I will show you how to implement a rich text editor using TinyMCE.
