Is there a way to implement this such that it requires no changes to an existing application (i.e. not require a specific parent div)?

29-43: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | 🏗️ Heavy liftAdd mobile browser coverage for both toolbar modes.
The example covers visual-viewport positioning, keyboard visibility, and nested scrolling, but the PR adds no mobile end-to-end test. Add tests for the default scrolling mode and the
html/body-locked.scroll-hostmode. Verify toolbar visibility and placement above the keyboard in both cases.🤖 Prompt for AI Agents

Inline comments:
In `@examples/03-ui-components/14-mobile-formatting-toolbar/main.tsx`:
- Line 4: Update the React entrypoint template’s App import to reference
./src/App without the .jsx extension, then regenerate the affected
auto-generated example entrypoints so they use the corrected import.
In `@examples/03-ui-components/14-mobile-formatting-toolbar/vite.config.ts`:
- Around line 15-28: Update the repository path resolution in the Vite
configuration’s source-alias block: change the core source existence check and
both `@blocknote/core` and `@blocknote/react` aliases to use ../../../packages/...
so they resolve from the repository root during development.
In `@packages/core/src/util/browser.ts`:
- Around line 31-33: Update isTouchDevice so it does not classify devices solely
from navigator.maxTouchPoints; incorporate viewport and interaction signals that
distinguish mobile layouts from touch-enabled desktop hardware. Preserve safe
behavior when navigator or window APIs are unavailable, and ensure
BlockNoteDefaultUI retains the desktop toolbar on touch-capable laptops and
desktops.
In `@packages/mantine/src/menu/Menu.tsx`:
- Around line 48-54: Scope the focus overrides in Menu to the mobile portalRoot
case: when portalRoot is absent, omit trapFocus={false}, returnFocus={false},
and withInitialFocusPlaceholder={false} so Mantine’s defaults remain active.
Update the Menu component’s prop construction while preserving these overrides
for menus rendered through a mobile portalRoot.
In `@packages/mantine/src/toolbar/ToolbarButton.tsx`:
- Around line 102-109: The ToolbarButton action-icon onPointerDown handler
currently prevents the primary mouse compatibility event before Safari focus
handling can run. Update onPointerDown to preserve Safari focus for primary
mouse input by moving the existing isSafari/isTouchDevice focus logic there, or
limit preventDefault to touch input; retain propagation behavior and avoid
changing unrelated branches.
In
`@packages/react/src/components/FormattingToolbar/MobileFormattingToolbarController.tsx`:
- Around line 49-54: Use MobileFormattingToolbar as the default component in
MobileFormattingToolbarController, and add the
bn-mobile-formatting-toolbar-scroll class to its toolbar scroll container in
packages/react/src/components/FormattingToolbar/MobileFormattingToolbar.tsx
lines 22-25; update
packages/react/src/components/FormattingToolbar/MobileFormattingToolbarController.tsx
lines 49-54 accordingly.
In `@packages/react/src/components/FormattingToolbar/useVisualViewportRect.ts`:
- Around line 72-87: Update isVirtualKeyboardOpen so maxLayoutViewportHeight is
reset or scoped when the layout orientation changes, preventing a prior portrait
baseline from being compared with a landscape viewport; retain the existing
keyboard-threshold behavior within the current orientation.
- Around line 11-18: Update readVisualViewport to avoid dereferencing window
when it is unavailable during server rendering, returning a server-safe fallback
rectangle instead. Ensure the existing client-side effect refreshes the
rectangle after mount so browser dimensions and visual viewport values are
applied.
- Around line 57-65: Update the cleanup returned by useVisualViewportRect so an
individual hook instance does not remove shared document-level viewport
properties while other subscribers remain mounted. Either add shared
reference-counted publishing that removes the --bn-vv-* variables only after the
final subscriber unmounts, or retain the properties during per-instance cleanup
while preserving listener removal.
In `@packages/shadcn/src/menu/Menu.tsx`:
- Around line 32-34: Update the Menu provider around PortalRootContext.Provider
to read the parent portal-root context and use it whenever the portalRoot prop
is nullish, preserving an explicitly supplied root. Ensure nested Menu
components inherit the nearest parent portal root so MenuDropdown continues
rendering in the correct subtree.

imo it would still be nice to access this through the playground. Can't we have it adjust the scroll-container option of the playground? (it's just a classname right?)

are we logging this only on mobile? not sure that's useful, because not many people see the console on mobile

In `@docs/next.config.ts`:
- Line 17: Update the allowedDevOrigins configuration to restrict 172.x origins
to the private 172.16.0.0/12 range by covering 172.16.*.* through 172.31.*.*, or
replace it with the exact LAN origin; retain the existing 192.x and 10.x
entries.
In `@examples/03-ui-components/14-mobile-formatting-toolbar/src/style.css`:
- Around line 1-4: Update the root styles near the existing html/body margin
rule to add mode-dependent overflow locking: when either root contains a
.bn-scroll-container, set overflow to hidden on both html and body using a
:has(.bn-scroll-container) selector. Preserve the existing margin reset.
In `@packages/ariakit/src/toolbar/ToolbarSelect.tsx`:
- Line 43: Update the AriakitSelectPopover configuration to set autoFocusOnShow
to false when portalRoot is present, while leaving it undefined otherwise, so
portal selects preserve editor focus.

Included review availability: Your plan provides up to 10 included reviews per hour; 6 remain after this review.
Each `*` in `allowedDevOrigins` matches one address segment, so `172.*.*.*` admitted all of 172/8 rather than the private range the comment describes. Spell out the sixteen second segments of 172.16.0.0/12 instead.
…opment only The check for `interactive-widget=resizes-content` moves out of `useVirtualKeyboard` into `BlockNoteViewEditor`'s mount effect, so it reaches developers on desktop and with a custom formatting toolbar alike. It lives in its own module (not re-exported from the package) and returns early when `process.env.NODE_ENV` is "production": the library build leaves that expression in place for the consumer's bundler, so production builds stay silent and a page without a bundler still gets the hint.
The playground already puts `bn-scroll-container` on its root, so the example's own container is nested inside it, and its "scrolling document" switch has to turn the page's container off. Both are CSS in the example: a nested container defers to the outer one, and a body class set by the switch neutralises any container on the page. The library stylesheet and the playground stay as they are.

This PR completes the experimental mobile formatting toolbar and adds it to the default UI. The toolbar opens when the virtual keyboard opens and sits above it.
Closes #280
Closes #938
Closes #2122
The browser APIs for dealing with the virtual keyboard and positioning elements around it are super half baked, so there's quite a lot of complexity in how this works. This complexity is almost entirely related to the visual viewport.
Viewport Background Context
The browser has two main viewports - the layout and visual viewport.
The layout viewport is what we generally refer to when talking about the browser viewport. Put simply, it's the box in which the browser renders a web page and determines the layout of that page.
The visual viewport is a box that lies within the layout viewport. In most cases (especially on desktop), it has the exact same dimensions as the layout viewport and is not really something you need to worry about. In this state, scrolling will move both the layout and visual viewports simultaneously around the page. However, using the pinch-to-zoom gesture on a trackpad or touchscreen shrinks the visual viewport. Now, scrolling will instead move the visual viewport within the layout viewport, and only once it reaches an edge will it move the layout viewport too.
The OS-level virtual keyboard shrinks the visual viewport the same way as pinch-to-zoom does. This means you can't just set
position: fixedon the toolbar. Doing so will anchor it to the layout viewport, which the visual viewport can still move around in while the keyboard remains open. Therefore, the toolbar will not stay anchored to the virtual keyboard.Default "Scrolling Document" Mode
The default mobile formatting toolbar implementation works in any app, but works quite differently between iOS and Android.
iOS
Unfortunately, while
position: fixedallows us to easily anchor an element to the layout viewport, no there is equivalent to doing the same for the visual viewport. Therefore, we are forced to update the position dynamically as the visual viewport scrolls and resizes. While this does work, it's quite laggy and jittery as each event has to issue a repaint on the next tick. Using a CSS transition makes it slightly less choippy, and this is the best we can do as a drop-in solution.Android
Under
<head>is a<meta name="viewport">element. It contains attributes which specify some viewport behaviour. One of those attributes isinteractive-widget, which is specifically for determining how the virtual keyboard should interact with the browser viewports. As mentioned above, by default it resizes the visual viewport, but not the layout viewport, which is equivalent tointeractive-widget: resizes-visual. Changing it tointeractive-widget: resizes-contentmakes it resize both viewports, allowing us to setposition: fixedon the toolbar to anchor it to the virtual keyboard. However, this changes nothing for pinch-to-zoom, in which case we fallback to the same implementation as iOS.Overall though, this is still a better experience than on iOS as it removes the lag and jitter on scroll, at least while fully zoomed out. The only reason we don't use it on iOS is because it doesn't support the
interactive-widgetattribute.Opt-in "Scroll Container" Mode
In order to remove the scrolling lag and jitter, the formatting toolbar must have the same position at all times. The only way to do this is by having the
<html>and<body>elements be non-scrollable, then use a descendant element which contains all scrollable content on the page, and fills the full width/height of the page. Then, by listening to scroll and resize events on the visual viewport, we can dynamically resize this element to match its size, basically causing the layout viewport to resize in sync with the visual viewport. Therefore, as long as we render the formatting toolbar outside this scroll container, we can useposition: fixedas both viewports are synced.The net result is that scrolling is always smooth, though resizing the visual viewport is still choppy. The bigger caveat is that
<html>and<body>elements must be non-scrollable, which is not a common pattern and may require fairly significant changes to an app's DOM structure. Hence why you have to opt-in, which is done by simply adding thebn-scroll-containerclass name to the element that should hold the page's scrollable content.Rationale
The desktop formatting toolbar has a pretty annoying issue on mobile where the OS will display its own floating menu on top of it for things like cut, copy, and paste. A formatting toolbar that sits on top of the virtual keyboard is also a more common mobile UX pattern that's better for one-handed reachability.

Testing
We could add e2e tests for this, but getting them to work would require stubbing most of the things we'd actually want to test since there is no virtual keyboard in the test environment.
