The idea behind the example

Have you ever wanted to have an editor like medium.com in your Next.js app? DraftJS is avalaible for SSR, but some plugins like the toolbar are using window, which does not work when doing SSR.

This example aims to provides a fully customizable example of the famous medium editor with DraftJS. The goal was to get it as customizable as possible, and fully working with Next.js without using the react-no-ssr package.
