This Editor.js inline tool enables users to add or remove a hyperlink. This takes inspiration from editorjs-hyperlink and makes some adjustments.
A few points to note:
- This inline tool can be accessed from the Inline Toolbar (see Preview).
- The inline button functions as a toggle, allowing you to show or hide the action menu.
- When a link already exists in the selected text, the action menu automatically detects it and gives you the option to Remove it.
Using npm
npm install @coolbytes/editorjs-link
Using yarn
yarn add @coolbytes/editorjs-link
