## Description

**As** a user  
**I want to** view and edit my documents with the new editor  
**so that** I have access to newer features like live collaboration

> It's not fully defined yet, how the migration happens. If this is an user action or if this is an automatic script that runs when upgrading OpenProject.

**Acceptance criteria**

  - Existing documents are migrated so that they work in Blocknote

  - ~~Existing Categories are migrated to Types~~ (this is being done in a separate work package <mention class="mention" data-id="66597" data-type="work_package" data-text="###66597">\#\#\#66597</mention>)

**Technical notes**

  - It is important to validate that migrations don't lose data
    
      - This means understanding what kind of data could be in a document and how to translate that into BlockNote format
