    onChange: (content) => {
        console.log("Editor :", content);
    }
});

var pluginImageUpload = {
    name: 'pluginImageUpload',
    icon: '-↑-',
    title: 'Image Upload',
    result: function(res) {
        //Example function to display an input and upload the image.
    }
};

Initialise the button in the position you want and the plugin, like this:

 tex.init({
    element: document.getElementById("editor"),
    buttons: ['pluginImageUpload', 'bold', 'fontSize', 'bold', 'italic'],
    plugins: [pluginImageUpload],
    onChange: () => {
    }
});

Styles

For example: If you want to change the height of the editor after the DOM has been initialized, you can do so by targeting the ".tex-content" class and adjusting the height property in your CSS file.

.tex-content {
    height: 400px;
}
