slash-editor gives your React app the Notion block experience: a slash menu, drag handles, nested reorder, turn-into, comments and real-time collab. It runs on a headless Tiptap v3 core. The UI arrives through a shadcn registry, so the components land in your repo and follow your Tailwind tokens. Tables, columns, Mermaid, AI via your own model, markdown import/export. MIT end to end, no paid tier, nothing hosted.
Hey Product Hunt 👋
I'm Nhat. I kept rebuilding the same Notion-style editor in different products. The engine
(ProseMirror/Tiptap) is great and free. The block UX on top usually isn't: slash menu, drag
handles, block comments.
slash-editor is my attempt to make that layer open and ownable:
🧠 Headless core: logic you update from npm
🎨 shadcn registry: markup you own and restyle
🤝 Collab, comments and AI are all adapters, so you bring your own backend
📜 MIT top to bottom
Try the playground (open it in two tabs with `?collab=ph` to see live collab):

I'd love to know which block you'd want next.
Bringing your own backend is a big plus. Makes this way more practical for products that already have their own stack.
Using Tip tap v3 under the hood makes sense. Are there any limitations when extending the editor with custom extensions?
I like that the UI components live directly in the repo instead of being locked behind a hosted service.
