Next.js
Run the init command to create a new Next.js project or to setup an existing one:

When prompted with:
Would you like to add a template or UI components to your project?Select UI Components if you want to include reusable Tiptap UI components. Alternatively, select Template to scaffold a full example project.
Only add styles
If you added a template or UI components during setup, you can skip this section and proceed directly to Add Styles.
Add Tiptap components
Install Tiptap UI components using the CLI. For example, to add the HeadingButton component:
npx @tiptap/cli@latest add heading-buttonThe command above will install the HeadingButton component and its dependencies. You can then import and use it in your Tiptap project:
import { HeadingButton } from '@/components/ui/heading-button'
export default function App() {
// Tiptap ...
return (
<>
<HeadingButton level={1}>Heading 1</HeadingButton>
<HeadingButton level={2}>Heading 2</HeadingButton>
<HeadingButton level={3}>Heading 3</HeadingButton>
</>
)
}Add Styles
Styles are added automatically
When you install your first Tiptap UI Component, the CLI automatically adds the required
.scss imports to your main stylesheet. In most cases, no manual setup is needed.
Before proceeding, ensure your project includes a CSS reset. If you are using Tailwind CSS, you already have one.
Where styles are imported
The CLI automatically injects style imports into your global stylesheet, such as:
app/globals.csssrc/app/globals.css
If you’ve customized your entry file, make sure this is present:
File: app/globals.css or src/app/globals.css (depending on your project)
@import '<path-to-styles>/_variables.scss';
@import '<path-to-styles>/_keyframe-animations.scss';Learn more about configuring styles in the style setup guide.
