Congrats on the YC funding and the launch! I've enjoyed building https://www.blocknotejs.org on top of TipTap / Prosemirror.

fyi, BlockNote aims to be a bit more batteries-included (comes with UI and block-based editing) - in case headless text-editing libraries are a bit too much work / steep learning curve.

Thanks! We've already found your great project and we're proud to have such a strong community. It's definitely a valid approach to include more batteries. We have been asked many times if we will provide a UI. Right now we're going the "headless path", building more features independent of the exact UI and backend services to improve the editor experience.

This is absolutely marvelous! I've been looking for something just like this. The batteries included aspect matters a lot if you just want the damn thing to work within a larger workflow, and the text editor is just one step along the way. Looking forward to trying it out!
