Yes, it’s a wrapper around ProseMirror, but a fairly popular one. tiptap 1 has more downloads than ProseMirror and all other ProseMirror based npm packages together. [1]

I see you have quite a few sponsors. Does any of that money make it’s way to ProseMirror? I couldn’t find your logo on their website.

Why not just ask users to also sponsor the ProseMirror project directly? Actually, this is what they are doing on their "Sponsor" page: https://www.tiptap.dev/sponsor/

Even with nearly 300 sponsors our hourly rate is $8 before taxes and from what I know Marijn is doing just fine already. I think it’s in his and our interest to make our work financially sustainable too.

That said, we’re sponsoring other related open source projects, for example Y.js already.

Thanks. But doesn’t that chart show the exact opposite?

Sorry, tiptap is requiring prosemirror-state, too. A more accurate description would be:

tiptap makes more than half the downloads of ProseMirror (and all other ProseMirror-based packages).
