Got Questions?We’ve got Answers!

Dive into our Tiptap FAQ: From syncing secrets to collaboration charms, we’re here to clear up all your curiosities.

Yes! Tiptap is a versatile and powerful open-source editor, available under the MIT license, which means you can use it free of charge. This makes it an accessible tool for developers looking to enhance their applications with advanced text editing features. For those who want to dive deeper and leverage the full potential of Tiptap, some of our more advanced extensions require a free Tiptap account. Most features, though, are readily available and can be easily integrated into your project with a simple npm install. This dual approach ensures that Tiptap remains an inclusive and flexible tool for a wide range of development needs, from basic text editing to more complex, collaborative functionalities.

Plain text editors are the simplest form, allowing you to write and edit text without formatting – ideal for coding or simple note-taking. Rich text editors, on the other hand, offer more functionality, enabling formatting options like bold, italics, and lists, much like what you'd find in word processing software. WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) editors take this a step further. They allow you to work with text, images, and other elements in a format that closely resembles the final output. This means you can see the styling and layout changes as you make them, providing a more intuitive and visually oriented editing experience. Each type serves different purposes, catering to various needs from basic text entry to complex content creation.

To use and implement Tiptap's rich text editor, you need to integrate it into your application. This process starts with installing Tiptap via npm. Once installed, you can easily incorporate the rich text editor into your web application by following the documentation provided on the Tiptap website. The documentation guides you through various aspects of implementation, from basic setup to customizing the editor to suit your specific needs.

Yes, the source code for Tiptap's rich text editor is openly available, as it is an open-source project. You can view, study, and even contribute to the source code by visiting the Tiptap repository on GitHub
