# TinyMCE Documentation

> Rich text editor for web applications. The latest stable version is TinyMCE 8. Generated 2026-09-30T04:33:06Z.

TinyMCE is a powerful, flexible WYSIWYG rich text editor that can be integrated into any web application.

## Version coverage

- This file covers TinyMCE 8, the current major version: https://www.tiny.cloud/docs/tinymce/latest/index.md
- TinyMCE 7, 6, and 5 are documented at https://www.tiny.cloud/docs/tinymce/7/index.md and the matching /tinymce/6/ and /tinymce/5/ paths
- Every page on every version is also served as markdown: append `index.md` to its URL

**IMPORTANT**: Always use TinyMCE 8 for new projects. Use `tinymce@8` or `tinymce/8` in CDN URLs and package installations.

**IMPORTANT**: TinyMCE 8 is disabled without a valid key. Load it from Tiny Cloud with an API key, or, when self-hosting, set the `license_key` option (`'gpl'` for use under the GPL). See [License key](https://www.tiny.cloud/docs/tinymce/latest/license-key/index.md).
