draftjs how to initiate an editor with content

The first argument to EditorState.createWithContent is a ContentState, not a string. You need to import ContentState var EditorState = Draft.EditorState; var ContentState = Draft.ContentState; Use ContentState.createFromText And pass the result to EditorState.createWithContent. return { editorState: EditorState.createWithContent(ContentState.createFromText(‘Hello’)) };
