<!-- Include Editor style. -->
<link href="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/froala-editor@latest/css/froala_editor.pkgd.min.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

<!-- Create a tag that we will use as the editable area. -->
<!-- You can use a div tag as well. -->
<textarea></textarea>

<!-- Include Editor JS files. -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/froala-editor@latest/js/froala_editor.pkgd.min.js"></script>

<!-- Initialize the editor. -->
<script>
  new FroalaEditor('textarea');
</script>

    require.config({
      packages: [{
        name: 'froala-editor',
        main: 'js/froala_editor.min'
      }],
      paths: {
        // Change this to your server if you do not wish to use our CDN.
        'froala-editor': 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/froala-editor@latest'
      }
    });
  </script>

  <style>
    body {
      text-align: center;
    }
    div#editor {
      width: 81%;
      margin: auto;
