Editor compatibility

Layer:Shared document capability

EditorStatusAssembly and boundaries
ClassicRequires integrationConnect the services, targets and lifecycle described on this page and validate the selected View and document model. Core contracts are reusable, but there is no universal product installation without host ports.
BlockUnverifiedA complete integration and verification path for this entry has not been established for this product. A public Core export does not imply product presentation, controls or file support.

“Supported” means the product assembly above exists; interaction, host services and file formats retain their own conditions. See status and integration rules. Licensing is shown separately.

Installation

sh

Install in Editor extensions. The host supplies a view, container and persistence; see Quick start.

ts

Use compatible versions available from your distribution source. This site uses the Alpha workspace. License labels come from package metadata; see support and licensing.

Integration by editor

These snippets use an existing host element named element. The host owns container sizing and persistence; call instance.destroy() on teardown. Avoid duplicating preset capabilities and supply required host ports before installation.

Commands and runtime

These commands are supplied directly by this extension. Availability depends on the installed schema, selection and protection policy; query editor.can() first.
