A Note on Releases (June, 2024):
We've been busy at work on core editor improvements like undo/redo, a stable editor pipeline, and useful editor reactions. These APIs have evolved a lot, so we haven't cut a standard release in a long time. We're still evolving those APIs right now.

Rest assured, Super Editor and the other projects in this repo are under regular development. We're still here and working hard.

We're now starting to publish developer releases of Super Editor so that the community can see what we've been working on.

As a reminder, your project doesn't need to use Pub to use Super Editor. You can depend directly on this GitHub repository to keep up with the latest changes. Please check the section below about our Git branches.

A Note on Branches:
Do you use Flutter's stable branch? Be sure to checkout super_editor's stable branch, for compatibility.
Do you use Flutter's master branch? Be sure to checkout super_editor's main branch, for compabitility.

We're building an entire toolkit!

You might notice that this is a mono-repo, which includes multiple projects. That's because we're not just building an editor. We're building a document editing toolkit. In fact, we're revolutionizing all text layout and editing with Flutter! Check out some of our supporting projects.

Mono-repo Versioning

If you have compilation errors when using the GitHub version of super_editor, try overriding dependencies for the other packages in this mono-repo, e.g., super_editor_markdown, super_text_layout, and attributed_text. This project often makes changes to multiple packages within the mono-repo, which requires that you use the latest main or stable version of every package.

You can override your dependencies as follows:

dependency_overrides:
  super_editor:
    git:
      url: https://github.com/superlistapp/super_editor
      path: super_editor
      ref: stable # or "main"
  super_editor_markdown:
    git:
      url: https://github.com/superlistapp/super_editor
      path: super_editor_markdown
      ref: stable
  super_text_layout:
    git:
      url: https://github.com/superlistapp/super_editor
      path: super_text_layout
      ref: stable
  attributed_text:
    git:
      url: https://github.com/superlistapp/super_editor
      path: attributed_text
      ref: stable
