feat: find word

[Muhammed-Rahif]

There is already a button for find in Edit -> Find ( ctrl + f ) in text editor mode, but its not working. Words that matches the find string from user should highlight on textarea.

Solution I prefer :-

Use the npm module called highlight-within-textarea. To use this module we also need to install jquery. After installing both packages you need to done these task :-

• [ ] Popup a small input field when user clicks on Edit -> Find ( or the shortcut ctrl + f ). Highlight the words from small input field. And should update the highlight words in textarea when the small input (find input) changes.
• [ ] Replace vanilla js using jquery.

- document.getElementById("some-id") // code like this
+ $("#some-id") // replace by using jquery
