## What it is
Plate is a React framework for building rich-text editors, built on Slate with a headless plugin system, composable packages, and shadcn/ui-style copyable UI components. It includes AI features, MCP support, markdown input rules, serialization, and collaboration plugins.

## Use cases
- build a notion-like rich text editor in react
- add a wysiwyg editor with markdown shortcuts to my app
- headless rich-text editor framework for react
- rich text editor with ai features and shadcn ui
- copy-paste editor components I can own and customize
- collaborative document editor with plugins

## When to choose
- you need a highly customizable React rich-text editor with a plugin architecture
- you want shadcn/ui-style components whose code you own in your app
- you need AI, MCP, or collaboration features in an editor
- you want markdown input rules and serialization out of the box

## When to avoid
- you need a non-React framework (Vue, Svelte, Angular)
- you want a zero-config drop-in editor with no customization
- you need a plain textarea or lightweight markdown-only input
