Unclear debug instructions in Cloning Medium article about docs-old HOT 2 CLOSED

The code example is var quill = new Quill('#editor'); which does get stored globally as that is a characteristic of var in an unscoped context. The particular Codepen uses let which is not supposed to but does anyways possibly because the way Babel is converting this to var but regardless the demo does work as documented. I'll change the let to var ensure this for future Babel/Codepen versions.

Ah I see the problem now. When the Codepen project is open on their website, the code is inserted in a normal script tag. When embedding in your docs page, they put it in a <script type="module">, which prevents top-level variables from mixing into the global scope.

When using module type script tags, you have to explicitly attach variables to the window object when you want them to be global. (I just tried it with the change from let to var and it still doesn't work, so it needs to also have a window.quill = quill for the instructions in the tutorial to work).
