We are happy to announce the release of CKEditor 5 v12.1.0. A month ago, we have seen some really positive feedback regarding the previous release of CKEditor 5 in which we introduced such features as inline widgets, distraction-free editor and support for multi-root editors. This version is no different and it brings four new long-awaited features (mention, font and background color, and remove formatting) as well as many improvements to the editor and our documentation.

We are happy to announce the release of CKEditor 5 v11.2.0. The latest editor version brings the long-awaited support for paste from Office (e.g. from Microsoft Word) and integration with the CKFinder file uploader. We have also enhanced the image upload documentation, improved the editor UI on mobile devices and introduced many smaller features and improvements.

It has been a long time coming, but after almost 4 years of research, planning and developing, we give you a totally new experience in rich text editing — CKEditor 5.

In this article I give a quick overview of the problem we aim to solve, the solutions we developed for that purpose and how to approach collaborative editing in your application.
