In March 2012, TeamLab introduced the first HTML5-based online document editors at CeBIT[5]

In July 2014, TeamLab Office was officially rebranded to OnlyOffice and the source code of the product was published on SourceForge and GitHub on terms of AGPL-3.0.[6][7]

In March 2016, the developers released a desktop application – OnlyOffice Desktop Editors, which is positioned as an open-source alternative to Microsoft Office.[8]
