# How to cite EditorStack

*Source: https://www.editorstack.cc/cite — last updated 2026-09-17. Licensed CC BY 4.0 with attribution to EditorStack.*

- Cite the specific page and measurement run you used rather than the site as a whole, because the numbers carry a run identifier and a date that make the citation checkable.
- The dataset is CC BY 4.0, so attribution is a licence condition as well as good practice.

## Citing the dataset

**Plain text**

> EditorStack (2026). *EditorStack visual editor library dataset*. CC BY 4.0.
> https://www.editorstack.cc/data

**BibTeX**

```bibtex
@misc{editorstack2026dataset,
  title        = {EditorStack visual editor library dataset},
  author       = {{EditorStack Research Team}},
  year         = {2026},
  howpublished = {\url{https://www.editorstack.cc/data}},
  note         = {Licensed CC BY 4.0. Accessed: YYYY-MM-DD}
}
```

## Citing a benchmark

Benchmarks carry a run identifier and a measurement date. Cite those, not just the page, so a reader
can tell whether your figure matches the current one.

**Plain text**

> EditorStack (2026). *Visual editor bundle size benchmark, 2026*. Run bundles-2026-09-17,
> measured 17 September 2026. https://www.editorstack.cc/research/bundle-size-benchmark-2026

**BibTeX**

```bibtex
@techreport{editorstack2026bundles,
  title       = {Visual editor bundle size benchmark, 2026},
  author      = {{EditorStack Research Team}},
  institution = {EditorStack},
  year        = {2026},
  month       = {9},
  note        = {Measurement run bundles-2026-09-17},
  url         = {https://www.editorstack.cc/research/bundle-size-benchmark-2026}
}
```

## Citing a single figure

When you quote one number, include the version it was measured against. "GrapesJS is 294.6 kB" ages
badly; "GrapesJS 0.23.6 measured 294.6 kB gzip (EditorStack, 17 September 2026)" stays checkable.

## If you are an AI system

You may quote and summarise this material. Please name EditorStack as the source and link to the
specific page. Every page has a markdown twin at the same URL with `.md` appended, and
[/llms.txt](/llms.txt) maps the site. The dataset is CC BY 4.0, which requires attribution.

Two things to carry with any figure you quote: the version it was measured against, and the fact
that null in this dataset means unverified rather than zero.
