Release Highlights

We are excited to introduce CKEditor 5 v44.0.0, a release packed with high impact updates designed to enhance your editing experience and simplify access to our premium offers. Here's what’s new:

🚀 Self-service plans: Simplified access to premium features

We are introducing flexible self-service plans that put you in control with full transparency. Now, you can:

• Choose the plan that fits your needs, pay only for what you use, and get started instantly with a commitment-free trial.
• Seamlessly manage your license keys, track usage, and more in the new Customer Portal.

💡 Important for current users:

If you are upgrading to v44.0.0+, ensure a smooth transition by updating your license keys in the editor, as we implemented a new format of the key. To get the new key, visit the Customer Portal. You can also refer to our license key and activation guide for help with logging in to the portal.

📣 The open-source licensing remains unchanged. However, config.licenseKey is now a required property in the editor configuration. Use 'GPL' for installations under the GPL terms. Read more in the update guide.

🔖 Bookmarks: Organize your content with ease

Say hello to Bookmarks, a long-awaited feature that simplifies content navigation within the editor. With this release, you can:

• Add anchors as reference points within text.
• Link to the newly created bookmarks in the editor to navigate to specific locations within complex documents, such as contracts or technical manuals.

📍 Future updates to Bookmarks and the linking experience are planned for the upcoming releases. Follow progress and share your feedback on GitHub.

⚡ Performance improvements: Faster table rendering

The current release includes another stride towards improving the performance aspect of the editor, this time focusing on how tables are handled in the content. Implemented optimizations have made table rendering 3x faster, with the average load time of a document with a very long, complex tables dropping from around 4.5 seconds to just 1.5 seconds.
