Release Notes — v2.4.0

March 2026

Highlights

This release introduces collaborative editing, a redesigned settings panel, and significant performance improvements to the sync engine.

New features

  • Real-time collaboration — Multiple users can now edit the same document simultaneously. Cursors are color-coded per participant. Conflict resolution uses a CRDT-based approach with no merge dialogs.
  • Settings redesign — The settings panel has been reorganized into tabbed sections: General, Editor, Appearance, and Integrations. Search now works across all settings.
  • Export to PDF — Documents can be exported as styled PDFs directly from the editor. Supports custom headers, footers, and page numbering.
  • Keyboard shortcut overlay — Press ? in the editor to see all available shortcuts.

Improvements

  • Sync engine rewritten to use incremental diffs — reduces bandwidth by ~60% for typical editing sessions
  • Editor now loads 2.3x faster on large documents (>50k words)
  • Search and replace supports regular expressions
  • Table column resizing with drag handles
  • Improved screen reader support throughout the editor
  • Dark mode colors refined for better contrast ratios (WCAG AA compliant)

Bug fixes

  • Fixed cursor jumping to end of document after paste in Firefox
  • Fixed table of contents not updating after heading deletion
  • Fixed rare data loss when closing tab during sync
  • Fixed export including content from collapsed sections
  • Fixed keyboard shortcuts conflicting with OS-level shortcuts on macOS

Breaking changes

  • API: The GET /documents/:id response now includes a version field. Clients that pin to a strict schema should update their types.
  • Plugins: The onDocumentChange hook now receives a ChangeEvent object instead of the full document. See the migration guide.

Deprecations

  • GET /documents/:id/history is deprecated in favor of the new GET /documents/:id/versions endpoint. The old endpoint will be removed in v3.0.

What's next

We're working on offline editing with automatic sync on reconnect, and a plugin marketplace. See the roadmap for details.
