    const range = editor.getSelection();
    editor.insertEmbed(range.index, 'image', url);
  };

  // Upload Image to Image Server such as AWS S3, Cloudinary, Cloud Storage, etc..
  const saveToServer = async (file) => {
    const body = new FormData();
    body.append('file', file);

    const res = await fetch('Your Image Server URL', { method: 'POST', body });
    insertToEditor(res.uploadedImageUrl);
  };

  const selectLocalImage = () => {
    const input = document.createElement('input');
    input.setAttribute('type', 'file');
    input.setAttribute('accept', 'image/*');
    input.click();

    input.onchange = () => {
      const file = input.files[0];
      saveToServer(file);
    };
  };
