Support getting content-styles.css from ckeditor5 dependency
📝 Provide a description of the new feature
What is the expected behavior of the proposed feature?
I came across the Content Styles documentation at https://ckeditor.com/docs/ckeditor5/latest/installation/advanced/content-styles.html#sharing-content-styles-between-frontend-and-backend.
So, I understand what is needed to display CKEditor 5 formatted HTML properly. In the documentation, the recommended solution is to include content-styles.css as a static resource and attach the ck-content class name to the wrapper.
But let's consider the following scenario: I am using CKEditor 5 in a React app and saving CKEditor 5 formatted HTML to the backend. On the frontend, I retrieve it from the backend and render it using the html-react-parser library.
However, I don't understand why it's necessary to include additional content-styles.css even though we've already included the CKEditor 5 dependency on Frontend. Why doesn't the CKEditor 5 library export content-styles.css in the first place?
If we don't have the ckeditor5 dependency, it makes sense to include content-styles.css, otherwise not.
I could be wrong, correct me please. Thank you!

That's because of historical nuances of CKEditor setup, which uses style-loader from webpack. As this was the default behavior, the CSS was not distributed. We are changing this with #15502, and when we release it, CSS will be a part of the packages.
