Full Changelog: v0.51.0...v0.51.1

0.51.0 (2026-05-14)

This release removes ~100 dependencies from @blocknote/core

This version we have completely rewritten the markdown ↔ html conversion primarily to remove ~80 dependencies from the package. This was a burden to everyone who does not rely on markdown conversion in their editor. If you run into issues with our new markdown parser & serializer, feel free to post an issue if it is obviously incorrect. We do ask however, if your issue is related to some edge case of the markdown format that you instead handle the markdown parsing in your application and invoke editor.tryParseHTMLToBlocks instead, as we do not intend to handle all markdown documents.

0.48.0 (2026-04-13)

🚨 Breaking

• Theme-related properties (fonts, colors, CSS variables) should target .bn-root instead of .bn-container. .bn-container now only wraps the editor itself, while .bn-root wraps both the editor and its floating UI (menus, toolbars). Layout related properties (width, height, margin) should still target .bn-container. Documentation has been updated to reflect this.

🚀 Features

• upgrade shiki to v4 and prosemirror-highlight to v0.15.1 (#2625)
• portal floating UI elements to document.body to prevent overflow clipping #2591

🩹 Fixes

• Image block selection clears on mouse leave in Safari (#2613)
• Backspace bug when current block is empty and previous block's last child is empty (#2610)
• allow using latest @tiptap/extension-link version (1ae8de713)
• restore depth guard in getParentBlockInfo to prevent RangeError (blo-1103) (#2585)
• pin better-auth to ~1.4.x to fix docs build (bda30458a)
• hide side menu on scroll instead of overflow hacks (#2630, #2043)
• disable default UI when no components context is found (#2611)
• placeholder when overflowing now wraps (#2291)
• core: fix unnesting blocks with siblings (BLO-1017) (#2601)
• core: backspace mid-text next to columnList moves block BLO-1126 (#2629)

🔥 Performance

• optimize plugin traversals for large documents BLO-1111 (#2600)
