# Migration from Local Installation

If you're migrating from a local Jodit PRO installation to the Cloud version:

1. Remove local Jodit files from your project
2. Replace `<script src="jodit.min.js"></script>` with `<script src="https://cloud.xdsoft.net/v4/jodit-pro/?key=YOUR_API_KEY"></script>`
3. Wrap initialization code in `JoditLoader.ready().then(() => { ... })`
4. Configure referrers in your [account dashboard](/jodit/pro/cab/)

## Before

```html
<link rel="stylesheet" href="jodit.min.css" />
<script src="jodit.min.js"></script>
<script>
	const editor = Jodit.make('#editor', {
		license: 'YOUR_LICENSE_KEY'
	});
</script>
```

## After

```html
<script src="https://cloud.xdsoft.net/v4/jodit-pro/?key=YOUR_API_KEY"></script>
<script>
	JoditLoader.ready().then(() => {
		const editor = Jodit.make('#editor', {
			// No license key needed - handled by API key
		});
	});
</script>
```

Key differences:

- **No CSS import needed** - styles are included automatically
- **No license key in config** - the API key handles licensing
- **Async initialization** - use `JoditLoader.ready()` to wait for the script to load
- **Always up-to-date** - no need to manually update files
