This example shows how to control the tldraw editor from an external UI, outside
of the Tldraw
component. There are a few ways of doing this—for example, by putting the editor on the window object, passing it around via props, or using React context.
In this example, we'll just put the editor instance in state and use it in the same component. See the External UI Example 2 for an alternative (and more realistic) solution using React context.
