WYSIWYG Editing in a Shadcn UI Shell
A rich text editor lets people write formatted content directly in the browser: headings, bold and italic text, lists, links, and code blocks, edited visually instead of in raw markup. This block wraps that capability in a Shadcn UI shell, pairing a formatting toolbar with a clean editable surface styled with Tailwind so the editor looks native to the rest of your interface.
The block is listed as Coming Soon and is under development. When it lands it will follow the library's standard contract: design token styling, responsive behavior, and React, Vuejs, and Svelte versions built on the same design.
Content Tools That Need One
Editors are the core input of a huge range of products. CMS platforms and blog pages need them for authoring, note apps for capture, support desks for replies, and community products for posts and comments. Internal tools use them for documentation, announcements, and email composition.
Because the block is a component rather than a full page, it is meant to be embedded wherever long form input appears: inside a dialog, a settings form, a comment thread, or a document canvas.
Appearance, Tokens, and Typography
The editor inherits its look from your Shadcn UI theme. Toolbar surfaces, borders, and icon colors resolve through the CSS variables in globals.css, and the writing area uses your foreground and muted tokens, so the editor matches your product in both light and dark mode without custom CSS.
Typography inside the editable surface follows your Tailwind configuration, which means the content people write previews in the same type system it will be published in.
Release Status and Getting Access
On release, the editor will install via the shadcn CLI command at the top of its page, with npm, pnpm, yarn, and bun tabs, or by copying the component from the code tab. It is a pro component, so source access and CLI installation are part of the All Access plan.
React, Vuejs, and Svelte versions ship together, with the Vuejs and Svelte editions building on the shadcn-vue and shadcn-svelte ports. Integrating it afterwards means binding the editor's content to your save endpoint and storing the output in your database like any other form field.
