# Getting Started

Jodit PRO is the premium/OEM build of the free [Jodit](https://xdsoft.net/jodit/) WYSIWYG editor: the same lightweight, dependency-free core plus professionally built plugins, each individually configurable.

This page covers the minimal setup. For the full details of each step, follow the links below.

## 1. Install

Install from npm, or download the source from your [personal account](https://xdsoft.net/jodit/pro/cab/) (OEM customers get all source files):

```bash
# with npm
npm install jodit-pro

# React wrapper
npm install jodit-pro-react
```

See [Installation](./getting-started/installation.md) for all options.

## 2. Initialize

```js
import { Jodit } from 'jodit-pro';

const editor = Jodit.make('#editor', {
	license: '%LICENSE_KEY%'
});
```

Set the key globally in your `config.js` instead if you prefer:

```js
Jodit.defaultOptions.license = '%LICENSE_KEY%';
```

Development and staging hosts (`localhost`, `*.dev.*`, `*.test.*`, `*.stg.*`, `staging.*`, …) don't need a key. See [Usage](./getting-started/usage.md) for the React setup and more configuration.
