Editor.js rendering/outputting two editors in React


I'm using Editor.js in React (Next.js) & have the original package, not the 3rd party wrappers for react.

For a reason I don't know, it is rendering/showing/outputting two codex-editores on the page! Both of them are working correctly and independently.

Screenshot (I added borders to show the area)

Codes

index.jsx

import EditorJS from "@editorjs/editorjs";
import css from "./removeme.module.scss" // just to see the area;

export default function index(params) {
   const editor = new EditorJS({
      holder: "editorjs",
   });

   return (
      <>
         <h1>New Note</h1>
         <div className={css["editor-area"]} id="editorjs" />
      </>
   );
}

_app.js

function SafeHydrate({ children }) {
   return <div suppressHydrationWarning>{typeof window === "undefined" ? null : children}</div>;
}

function MyApp({ Component, pageProps }) {
   return (
      <SafeHydrate>
         <Body>
            <Sidebar items={SidebarLinks} />
            <Page>
               <Component {...pageProps} />
            </Page>
         </Body>
      </SafeHydrate>
   );
}

export default MyApp;

What I tried

Additional Notes

The page localhost:3001/notes/editor is only accessible if visited from sidebar menu (SPA-like). I mean, it shows 'window is not defined' if opened directly.

What's causing the problem?


Solution

  • Using useEffect solves the issue since it only runs after the initial page render:

    export default function index(params) {
       useEffect(() => {
          const editor = new EditorJS({
             holder: "editorjs",
          });
       }, []);
       
       return (
          <>
             <h1>New Note</h1>
             <div className={css["editor-area"]} id="editorjs" />
          </>
       );
    }
