# Meet SuperDoc

The document engine for DOCX files. Renders, edits, and automates .docx documents in the browser, headless on the server, and within AI agent workflows.

## What SuperDoc does

Your users need real Word documents. Not "Word-like." Not "compatible." Actual `.docx` files with tracked changes, complex tables, and section breaks that open perfectly in Microsoft Word.

SuperDoc renders and edits DOCX files directly in the browser. Built on OOXML — not bolted onto HTML. As you type, you write to the XML. Import a document, edit it, export it. Nothing lost.

## Why it works

* **Real DOCX, not rich text** — This isn't another contenteditable wrapper. SuperDoc handles actual `.docx` files with their full complexity.
* **Any framework** — React, Vue, Angular, Svelte, vanilla JS. One component, zero lock-in.
* **Self-hosted** — Runs entirely in the browser. Your documents never leave your servers.
* **Programmable** — API, SDK, CLI, MCP server. Run headless in Node.js for AI agents and automation. The same engine — visual or headless.
* **Dual licensed** — AGPLv3 for community use, Commercial License for proprietary deployments.
