"I need Create simple text editor. I want this text editor can get the image, video and link too."
You can have simple, or you can have image, video etc. You cannot have both.

Richard is correct. What you want is NOT simple at all. It's very difficult to get right and even control vendors you hand a bucket of money to don't get it right either. You're mapping a visual text editor over managing HTML completely in javascript code. You WILL run into formatting issues and stuff that a user just cannot make look correct no matter what they do.

you are right. and sorry for that. I redesign my web page. now I get and show the image and video separately. Now I only need the text editor for work with text. (I think now is simple). and I am sorry again. I edit my post right now.

While we are more than willing to help those that are stuck, that doesn't mean that we are here to do it all for you! We can't do all the work, you are either getting paid for this, or it's part of your grades and it wouldn't be at all fair for us to do it all for you.

So we need you to do the work, and we will help you when you get stuck. That doesn't mean we will give you a step by step solution you can hand in!
Start by explaining where you are at the moment, and what the next step in the process is. Then tell us what you have tried to get that next step working, and what happened when you did.

Just saying "I had a quick google but can't find exactly what I want" doesn't help you, particularly when we have no idea what you found or why you rejected it.
Sorry, but you are going to have to decide exactly what you need it to do, and then either google for the various tasks involved, or more probably write your own specification and start designing your own code.

Well, there are lots of resource which can help you to develop editor using CSS / HTMl and JS.
Here is the code reference.

    <style>
        body {
            font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
        }

        textarea {
            width: 100%;
            height: 300px;
            padding: 10px;
            border: 1px solid #ccc;
            border-radius: 5px;
        }
    </style>
</head>
<body>
    <h1>Simple Text Editor</h1>
    <textarea id="editor"></textarea>

    <script>
        // JavaScript code to handle the text editor functionality
        const editor = document.getElementById('editor');

        // Save the content to local storage whenever the user types or pastes something
