tiptap

Free: The Tiptap Editor core and its open source extensions are MIT: StarterKit, tables, lists, mentions, Collaboration and Collaboration Caret, Mathematics, Drag Handle, Find and Replace, Table of Contents, Emoji, Details, File Handler and more, with React and Vue packages. Hocuspocus, the Yjs collaboration backend, is also MIT. Open source UI components and a simple editor template are free.

Self-hosted: The editor runs in your frontend with no server. Self-hosted real-time collaboration means running Hocuspocus yourself, with persistence, auth and scaling on you. Platform features (comments, version history, AI, webhooks) are only self-hostable through Enterprise on-prem. Pro Extensions, Pro UI Components and Pro Templates ship under the proprietary Tiptap Pro license (business use only, no standalone redistribution), and some need an active subscription for verification even without Cloud documents. The @tiptap/ai-toolkit package in the repo is MIT, but it is the client for the paid Server AI Toolkit service.
