Do you plan to test Drupal 12 with CKEditor? The 2.0 betas of both CKEditor modules are out

Do you plan to test Drupal 12 with CKEditor? The 2.0 betas of both CKEditor modules are out

Remark: I work at CKEditor as a Developer Advocate 🥑

Drupal 12 is in beta since DrupalCon Rotterdam, and today both official CKEditor contrib modules got their matching 2.0.0-beta1 releases:

What to know before you try them:

  • 2.x requires Drupal 12 and is not compatible with Drupal 10 or 11. The 1.x line stays for Drupal 10.3+ and 11.
  • Both modules have to be upgraded together with core, in one Composer operation:

``` composer require \ 'drupal/core-recommended:12.0@beta' \ 'drupal/core-composer-scaffold:12.0@beta' \ 'drupal/core-project-message:12.0@beta' \ 'drupal/ckeditor5_plugin_pack:2.0@beta' \ --no-update

composer update --with-all-dependencies ```

  • Already on Drupal 12 without the modules? Then just composer require 'drupal/ckeditor5_premium_features:^2.0@beta' 'drupal/ckeditor5_plugin_pack:^2.0@beta'.
  • Both betas switch to the CKEditor 5 UMD installation method that Drupal 12 uses. Premium Features also adds a collapsible AI container, AI Chat context configuration, configurable heading levels in the document outline, clipboard mode for collaboration, and Arabic-Indic numbering for footnotes.

I tried to kick this off a bit during DrupalCon Rotterdam, the slides give the high-level idea of the 1.x vs 2.x split: CKEditor in Drupal: News in Content Editing

Are the release notes clear? If anything in the upgrade path is confusing or breaks on your Drupal 12 test site, say it here and I will pass it on to the module maintainers.
