# Editor

This class is a central building block of tiptap. It does most of the heavy lifting of creating a working  [ProseMirror](https://ProseMirror.net/) editor such as creating the [`EditorView`](https://ProseMirror.net/docs/ref/#view.EditorView), setting the initial [`EditorState`](https://ProseMirror.net/docs/ref/#state.Editor_State) and so on.

## Settings
All of the listed settings can be set during initialization, read and updated during runtime.
