Migrating to v2

To bring support for Rich Text Tables we rewrote most of the internals of this package to adapt the latest version of Slate. We are releasing this change as v2.0.0.

There are two ways our users typically use the rich-text field editor:

1. By embedding @contentful/field-editor-rich-text npm package

Since the public API exposed by the package remains the same, upgrading to v2 should be seamless as it's just a matter of installing the latest version from npm. No migration is needed.

2. By forking the source code

You will need to adapt your fork to work with v2. Here is a highlight of the major changes:

1. Using Slate >= v0.80.0. If you're upgrading from < 0.50.x Please check the library migration guide
2. Using Plate as a plugin system. Plate is a powerful plugin system to make it easy to work with Slate. All of the existing rich text plugins were rewritten to use Plate. To learn more, please check Plate's website.

Credits

This package is based on Slate & Plate and also borrows some of their code. Without them, this project would not have been possible.
