v0.47.0 is a monthly release with a lot of bug fixes, particularly related to IME and composition, and is headlined by two new experimental packages:

• @lexical/mdast (#8794) — a micromark/mdast-based alternative to @lexical/markdown. Parsing, serialization, and markdown shortcuts all go through the same parser used by remark, so CommonMark + GFM compliance comes for free and there is no second grammar to keep in sync. The original syntax of each construct is preserved on the nodes, so re-serializing produces minimally different Markdown. @lexical/markdown remains the supported default for production apps. See the new Markdown with @lexical/mdast guide.
• @lexical/a11y (#8591) — framework-agnostic accessibility helpers (ARIA live regions, focus management, roving tab index, focus trap) usable from React, Svelte, Vue, Solid, or vanilla DOM, with React wrappers shipping from @lexical/react. The playground adopts them as part of a WCAG AA reference pass, and the keyboard contracts Lexical follows are documented in the new Keyboard Accessibility guide.

Beyond the headliners: React 18 is now the baseline (see Breaking Changes), the playground gains Find and Replace and a Ruby annotation node with a floating editor, tables learn to spread pasted TSV across cells and get row/column header utilities, and there is a long list of IME/composition, selection, and navigation fixes.

Special recognition once again goes to @mayrang who has been plowing through IME, accessibility, and other input related issues as well as the really cool new Find and Replace and Ruby Annotations playground features.

React 18 is now the minimum supported version; the react / react-dom peerDependencies require >=18, and React 17 compatibility code paths were removed. If you are already on React 18 or 19, no changes are required.

Starting IME composition in the middle of a segmented TextNode (e.g. a mention) previously replaced the node — destroying its DOM element and breaking the browser's composition tracking (caret flashing and styling bleed on Chrome). The node now temporarily switches to normal mode for the duration of composition, keeping the same node key and DOM element, and is cleaned up when composition ends. Subclass transforms or method overrides that assume a segmented node is always in segmented mode must account for this transient state — see the updated TextNode.setMode() documentation.

• lexical — $getDocument() returns the owner document of the active editor (correct inside a Shadow DOM or iframe), falling back to the global document when there is no active editor; a new @lexical/eslint-plugin rule enforces its use over the document global (#8788, #8813)
• lexical — registerEventListener / registerEventListeners, type-safe addEventListener helpers that return cleanup functions, now used throughout the codebase — see the updated Working with DOM Events guide (#8767)
• lexical — SET_TEXT_FORMAT_COMMAND sets (rather than toggles) the selection's text format (see Commands); the same PR fixes formatText toggle direction (#8807)
• @lexical/markdown — $generateNodesFromMarkdownString parses a markdown string into Lexical nodes without inserting them into the document or modifying the selection (#8789)
• @lexical/table — $setTableRowIsHeader and $setTableColumnIsHeader utilities (#8815); $insertTableRowAtNode and $insertTableColumnAtNode are now exported (#8791)

IME, composition & mobile

• Prevent text duplication on iOS Safari when formatting during composition (#8755)
• Skip ZWSP insertion for format mismatch on Android Chrome (#8769); deduplicate speech-to-text insertion on Android Chrome (#8759)

• Keep selection inside single-child inline elements (#8772); fix navigation across unmergeable TextNode boundaries in inline-grid containers (#8797)
• $setBlocksType properly handles block-end focus in backward selections (#8753); insertNodes re-resolves a detached firstBlock (#8764)
• Place the block cursor between decorators and shadow roots (#8758); clean up the trailing shadow root after select-all delete (#8751)
• deleteCharacter no longer overwrites the X11 PRIMARY selection via Selection.modify (#8774)
• Defer onUpdate callbacks during nested commits (#8672)

Markdown, code & tables
