    From the README

    ⏰️ Looking for the next generation version of Swagger Editor?

    SwaggerEditor is now released under two major release channels:

    Only SwaggerEditor@5 supports OpenAPI 3.1.0. SwaggerEditor@4 will not receive OpenAPI 3.1.0 support and is considered legacy at this point. The plan is to continually migrate fully to SwaggerEditor@5 and deprecate the SwaggerEditor@4 in the future.

    🕰️ Looking for the older version of Swagger Editor? Refer to the 2.x or 3.x branches.

    Swagger Editor lets you edit OpenAPI API definitions (OpenAPI 2.0 and OpenAPI 3.0.3) in JSON or YAML format inside your browser and to preview documentations in real time. Valid OpenAPI definitions can then be generated and used with the full Swagger tooling (code generation, documentation, etc).

    As a brand-new version, written from the ground up, there are some known issues and unimplemented features. Check out the Known Issues section for more details.

    This repository publishes to two different NPM modules:

    If you're building a single-page application, using swagger-editor is strongly recommended, since swagger-editor-dist is significantly larger.
