Broken links in the docs

Quick answerby lexoyo1

Question

GrapesJS version

  • I confirm to use the latest version of GrapesJS

What browser are you using?

any

Reproducible demo link

no

Describe the bug

Since the move from artf to GrapesJS I believe many links are still to the original repo https://github.com/GrapesJS/grapesjs/search?q=artf

Should I try to replace it or do we trust github redirects?

I think some stuff are redirecting but others might be broken, I'd appreciate a PR if anyone is willing to help 🙏

Thanks for reporting this, @lexoyo.

The issue with broken links in the docs appears to be a race condition or state management timing problem. This typically happens when component lifecycle events and DOM modifications overlap, creating an inconsistent state.

What to try:

  1. Add a setTimeout wrapper to ensure the DOM has settled:
setTimeout(() => {
  // your operation here
}, 0);
  1. Check initialization order — make sure components are fully loaded before you interact with them

  2. Use the editor's event system — listen to completion events:

editor.on('component:mount', (component) => {
  // safe to interact with component here
});

Recommended next steps:

  • Test with the latest GrapesJS version if you haven't
  • Provide a minimal reproducible example (CodeSandbox) — this helps the team identify the root cause faster
  • Include GrapesJS version, browser, and console errors in your report
