Show HN: Tiptap Editor 3.0 Beta is out.

Hi HN! Philip here from Tiptap (https://tiptap.dev/). We're excited to announce Tiptap 3.0 Beta, a major upgrade built with and for the open source community. It's still extension-based, still unopinionated, but we've tackled some of the biggest developer headaches:

Enhanced TypeScript support:

Hi, Philip here from Tiptap. We just released a new set of open source UI components for [Tiptap](https://tiptap.dev/), our headless text editor framework.

These are handcrafted React components that integrate directly with Tiptap’s headless core, things like toolbars, dropdowns, formatting buttons, upload controls, etc. They’re MIT licensed and fully optional. You can use them as-is or customize every part.

There’s also a CLI that sets everything up for you: project scaffolding, recommended defaults, and a working example.

This is for folks who like the flexibility of Tiptap but don’t want to start from zero every time they need an editor UI. It doesn’t change how Tiptap works – just gives you a faster way to build on top of it.

Start here:

Thanks! I built the editor using Tiptap (https://tiptap.dev/) which doesn't support Markdown out of the box. However, since it can detect Markdown shortcuts (#, ##, >, etc.), it should be possible to convert a markdown file into rich text, and then when done writing and editing convert it back into markdown, while limiting formatting options only to ones that are available for both. I think Joplin (https://joplinapp.org/) does something similar.

I'll think about this for sure, especially since I've been thinking of making it possible to save and read local files. If you'd like to try Gorby, send me an email and I'll be happy to give you a free license code :)

While Storyblok and Builder.io offer full-page editing experiences with structured CMS capabilities, Tiptap takes a different approach. It’s not a traditional page builder but rather an embeddable headless editor built on ProseMirror. This means that instead of giving you a predefined UI to work with, it provides the underlying logic, leaving you in full control of the interface, interaction and level of functionality you want to provide in your page builder.

There are paid tools available. For example, the Tiptap rich text editor is free to use, but some advanced features and APIs are paid for. For example, the cursor editor heavily relies on AI capabilities, so it requires payment for use.

Novel is an open-source Notion-style WYSIWYG editor with AI-powered autocompletion. This built on top of TipTap. Tiptap is the headless and open source editor framework. Integrate over 100+ extensions and paid features like collaboration and AI agents to create the UX you want.
