<hr/>

[Quill](https://quilljs.com/) is a modern rich text editor built for compatibility and extensibility. It was created by [Jason Chen](https://twitter.com/jhchen) and [Byron Milligan](https://twitter.com/byronmilligan) and actively maintained by [Slab](https://slab.com).

To get started, check out [https://quilljs.com/](https://quilljs.com/) for documentation, guides, and live demos!

## Quickstart

Instantiate a new Quill object with a css selector for the div that should become the editor.

```html
<!-- Include Quill stylesheet -->
<link
  href="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/quill@2/dist/quill.snow.css"
  rel="stylesheet"
/>

<!-- Create the toolbar container -->
<div id="toolbar">
  <button class="ql-bold">Bold</button>
  <button class="ql-italic">Italic</button>
</div>

<!-- Create the editor container -->
<div id="editor">
  <p>Hello World!</p>
  <p>Some initial <strong>bold</strong> text</p>
  <p><br /></p>
</div>

<!-- Include the Quill library -->
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/quill@2/dist/quill.js"></script>

<!-- Initialize Quill editor -->
<script>
  const quill = new Quill("#editor", {
    theme: "snow",
  });
</script>
```

Take a look at the [Quill](https://quilljs.com/) website for more documentation, guides and [live playground](https://quilljs.com/playground/)!
