We are happy to announce the release of CKEditor 5 v43.2.0.

Release highlights

Notable improvements

  • Operational Transformation Stability: Significant changes have been made to the OT system, enhancing the undo functionality and real-time collaboration, especially in conflict resolution scenarios. These improvements ensure smoother editor operations during complex interactions.
  • Performance Improvements: We have merged several community-driven performance enhancements (thanks @sunesimonsen), that optimize the editor’s core engine. While no changes to the editor’s logic were made, these updates improve overall efficiency and responsiveness.

More imports available via ckeditor5 and ckeditor5-premium-features indexes

As users transition to new installation methods (v42.0.0+) with ckeditor5 and ckeditor5-premium-features as the main packages, we are continuously addressing missing imports for less common classes, functions, types, and utilities, broadening their availability. Since our TypeScript rewrite (v37.0.0), imports can now be made directly through the package indexes, simplifying integration. As many users historically imported from src, we encourage you to try the new version and report any missing imports. In the future, we are considering removing src from published packages to reduce package size, so the more feedback we receive, the better and more stable API we will provide.
