The Upload widget allows you to upload one or more files to a server in the standard or asynchronous mode.
In order to properly render it on the page, you need to:
1. Include references to all required scripts. Make sure you include the CSS file for your preferred theme.
2. Add a <textarea> element for which to initialize the editor functionality.
3. Initialize the component.
