Advanced tools
The core architecture of CKEditor 5 – the best browser-based rich text editor.
@ckeditor/ckeditor5-core is a core package for CKEditor 5, a modern JavaScript rich text editor. It provides essential functionalities and utilities for building and customizing CKEditor 5 editors.
Editor Creation
This feature allows you to create and initialize a CKEditor 5 instance. The code sample demonstrates how to create a classic editor and attach it to a DOM element.
const ClassicEditor = require('@ckeditor/ckeditor5-editor-classic/src/classiceditor');
const Editor = require('@ckeditor/ckeditor5-core/src/editor/editor');
ClassicEditor.create(document.querySelector('#editor'))
.then(editor => {
console.log('Editor was initialized', editor);
})
.catch(error => {
console.error(error.stack);
});
Plugin Management
This feature allows you to create and manage plugins for CKEditor 5. The code sample demonstrates how to create a custom plugin and include it in the editor configuration.
const Plugin = require('@ckeditor/ckeditor5-core/src/plugin');
class MyPlugin extends Plugin {
init() {
console.log('MyPlugin was initialized');
}
}
ClassicEditor.create(document.querySelector('#editor'), {
plugins: [ MyPlugin ]
})
.then(editor => {
console.log('Editor with MyPlugin was initialized', editor);
})
.catch(error => {
console.error(error.stack);
});
Command Management
This feature allows you to create and manage commands in CKEditor 5. The code sample demonstrates how to create a custom command and execute it within the editor.
const Command = require('@ckeditor/ckeditor5-core/src/command');
class MyCommand extends Command {
execute() {
console.log('MyCommand executed');
}
}
ClassicEditor.create(document.querySelector('#editor'))
.then(editor => {
editor.commands.add('myCommand', new MyCommand(editor));
editor.execute('myCommand');
})
.catch(error => {
console.error(error.stack);
});
TinyMCE is another popular rich text editor that provides a wide range of features and plugins. It is similar to CKEditor 5 in terms of functionality but has a different API and plugin system.
Quill is a modern WYSIWYG editor built for compatibility and extensibility. It offers a simpler API compared to CKEditor 5 and is highly customizable through its modular architecture.
Draft.js is a JavaScript rich text editor framework developed by Facebook. It provides a set of React components and an immutable model for managing editor state, making it different from CKEditor 5's approach.
This package implements CKEditor 5's core editor architecture – a set of classes and interfaces which glue everything together.
For general introduction see the Overview of CKEditor 5 framework guide and then the core editor architecture guide.
Additionally, see the @ckeditor/ckeditor5-core
package page in CKEditor 5 documentation for even more information.

42.0.0 (June 26, 2024)
We are happy to announce the release of CKEditor 5 v42.0.0
We are excited to announce the latest release of CKEditor 5, bringing major improvements to simplify the installation and setup process. After extensive research and gathering feedback, we have improved the setup methods to enhance the developer experience and align with modern standards.
The most prominent changes:
ckeditor5
and ckeditor5-premium-features
packages, reducing dependency management complexity.The old installation methods are still supported, but we put them on the deprecation path. Read more about this in our migration guides.
Along with the new release, we present you the brand new CKEditor 5 Builder.
The new Builder allows you to start with one of the predefined presets, customize it by adding and removing features, and observe the changes live in an editor preview (and play with the editor!). Once you are happy with your custom setup, you get ready-to-use code snippets for React, Angular, Vue, and VanillaJS setups for both npm and CDN distributions.
We rewrote large parts of the documentation to complete the picture and ensure consistency across the ecosystem. The entire Getting started section was redesigned to focus on the new installation methods and to better guide the integrator through the ecosystem.
If you need clarification or a more in-depth explanation, please let us know.
Finally, detailed migration guides can be found in our documentation. These guides provide step-by-step instructions and examples to help you seamlessly transition to the new installation methods:
We value your input, so please share your experiences, ask questions, and provide feedback to help us refine these changes. Join us in this exciting new chapter for CKEditor 5 and let’s make the developer experience as smooth and enjoyable as possible.
We have stopped publishing the superbuild and predefined builds to our CDN. Predefined builds can still be accessed as an npm package. If you want to keep using our CDN with new versions of the editor, we recommend migrating to the new installation methods.
We are excited to announce a major update to our premium Export to Word feature, delivering significantly improved quality with multiple enhancements and bug fixes. This release also brings a substantial reduction in the conversion time. Export to Word v2 is an opt-in feature right now, and to use it you need to slightly change the editor’s configuration. Detailed information can be found in the documentation.
