Converting Blocks to HTML
This example exports the current document (all blocks) as HTML and displays it below the editor.
Try it out: Edit the document to see the HTML representation!

import { BlockNoteView, useCreateBlockNote } from "@blocknote/react";
import "@blocknote/react/style.css";
import { useState } from "react";
import "./styles.css";
export default function App() {
// Stores the editor's contents as HTML.
const [html, setHTML] = useState<string>("");
// Creates a new editor instance with some initial content.
const editor = useCreateBlockNote({
initialContent: [
{
type: "paragraph",
content: [
"Hello, ",
{
type: "text",
text: "world!",
styles: {
bold: true,
},
},
],
},
],
});
const onChange = async () => {
// Converts the editor's contents from Block objects to HTML and store to state.
const html = await editor.blocksToHTMLLossy(editor.document);
setHTML(html);
};
// Renders the editor instance, and its contents as HTML below.
return (
<div className="wrapper">
<div>Input (BlockNote Editor):</div>
<div className="item">
<BlockNoteView editor={editor} onChange={onChange} />
</div>
<div>Output (HTML):</div>
<div className="item bordered">

<code>{html}</code>
