Blocks are structural units, of which the Entry is composed. For example, `Paragraph`, `Heading`, `Image`, `Video`, `List` are Blocks. Each Block is represented by Plugin. We have [many](http://github.com/editor-js/) ready-to-use Plugins and a [simple API](https://editorjs.io/tools-api) for creating new ones. How to use the Editor after [Installation](https://editorjs.io/getting-started). - Create new Blocks by pressing Enter or clicking the Plus Button - Press `TAB` or click on the Plus Button to view the Toolbox - Press `TAB` again to leaf Toolbox and select a Block you need. Then press Enter.  - Select a text fragment and apply a style or insert a link from the Inline Toolbar  - Use the «three-dots» button on the right to open Block Settings. From here, you can move and delete a Block or apply a Tool's settings, if it provided. For example, you can set a Heading level or List style.  ### Shortcuts A few shortcuts are preset as available. Shortcut | Action | Restrictions -- | -- | -- `TAB` | Show/leaf a Toolbox. | On empty block `SHIFT+TAB` | Leaf back a Toolbox. | While Toolbox is opened `ENTER` | Create a Block | While Toolbox is opened and some Tool is selected `CMD+B` | Bold style | On selection `CMD+I` | Italic style | On selection `CMD+K` | Insert a link | On selection Each Tool can also have its own shortcuts. These are specified in the configuration of the Tool, for example: ```js var editor = new EditorJS({ //... tools: { header: { class: Header, shortcut: 'CMD+SHIFT+H' }, list: { class: List, shortcut: 'CMD+SHIFT+L' } } //... }); ``` ## Installation Guide There are few steps to run Editor.js on your site. 1. [Load Editor's core](#load-editors-core) 2. [Load Tools](#load-tools) 3. [Initialize Editor's instance](#create-editor-instance) ### Step 1. Load Editor's core Get Editor.js itself. It is a [minified script](dist/editor.js) with Editor's core and some default must-have tools. Choose the most usable method of getting Editor for you. - Node package - Source from CDN ##### Option A. NPM install Install the package via NPM or Yarn ```shell npm i @editorjs/editorjs ``` Include module in your application ```javascript import EditorJS from '@editorjs/editorjs'; ``` ##### Option B. Use a CDN You can load EditorJS directly from from [jsDelivr CDN](https://www.jsdelivr.com/package/npm/@editorjs/editorjs). `https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@editorjs/editorjs@latest` For example, place this in your HTML: ```html ``` Or download the bundle file and use it from your server. ```html ``` ### Step 2. Load the Tools that you want to make available Each Block is represented by a [Tool](docs/tools.md). Tools are simple external scripts with their own logic. For example, there is a [Header](https://github.com/editor-js/header) Tool into which you type your heading text. If you want to be able to use this, install the Header Tool the same way as the Editor (Node.js, CDN, local file). **Example:** use Header from CDN ```html ``` Check [Editor.js's community](https://github.com/editor-js/) to see more ready-to-use Tools. ### Step 3. Create Editor instance Create an instance of Editor.js and pass [Configuration Object](types/configs/editor-config.d.ts) with `holderId` and tools list. ```html

``` You can create a simple Editor with only default Paragraph Tool by passing a string with element's Id (wrapper for Editor) as a configuration param. Or use the default `editorjs` id for wrapper. ```javascript var editor = new EditorJS(); /** Zero-configuration */ // equals var editor = new EditorJS('editorjs'); ```` Or pass a whole settings object. ```javascript var editor = new EditorJS({ /** * Create a holder for the Editor and pass its ID */ holder : 'editorjs', /** * Available Tools list. * Pass Tool's class or Settings object for each Tool you want to use */ tools: { header: { class: Header, inlineToolbar : true }, // ... }, /** * Previously saved data that should be rendered */ data: {} }); ``` ### Saving Data Call `editor.save()` and handle returned Promise with saved data. ```javascript editor.save() .then((savedData) => { console.log(savedData); }); ``` ### Example Take a look at the [example.html](example/example.html) to view more detailed examples. ## Credits and references - We use [HTMLJanitor](https://github.com/guardian/html-janitor) module in our Sanitizer module. ## About team We are CodeX and we build products for developers and makers.
