Tiptap

Over 100 extensions sit at the core of Tiptap, a headless, open source editor framework for developers who want to build their own rich text editor rather than adopt a fixed one.

Headless means Tiptap ships no preset interface, so you design the look and behavior of the editing experience yourself.

The pitch is that you can build something like Notion in weeks, not years.

Beyond the free open source editor, Tiptap offers paid features such as real time collaboration and AI agents, which you add when a project needs them.

Tiptap Editor 3.0 is the current major version of the rich text editor, built by and for the open source community.

It is a developer tool, not a finished writing app, so expect to write code and wire up your own interface.

That is the trade for control over the result.
