I’m struggling to get froala-editor to work

I’ve followed the instruction at [https://froala.com/wysiwyg-editor/docs/framework-plugins/aurelia/](https://froala.com/wysiwyg-editor/docs/framework-plugins/aurelia/) except for the part where it says:

Where is the `vendor_bundle` it refers to aurelia.json?

Anyway, without including this part in the view and leaving `stub:true` the editor shows up fine, using

```auto
<froala-editor value.two-way="model.name"></froala-editor>

```

I can use the editor without any problem, except that it doesn’t bind to the model.

Any suggestions please?

I had the same problem, and Froala support did not properly understand Aurelia. The aurelia-froala-editor plugin has not been written to work properly with the newest version of Froala. I just used the Kendo RTE as I have a license and it just works.
