# Importing EditorUI class

The EditorUI class was moved from the @ckeditor/ckeditor5-core to the @ckeditor/ckeditor5-ui package. Thus, it is enough to update imports (depending on the format used):

  • from 'ckeditor5/src/core' to 'ckeditor5/src/ui'
  • from '@ckeditor/ckeditor5-core/src/editor/editorui' to '@ckeditor/ckeditor5-ui/src/editorui/editorui'

Before:

import { EditorUI } from '@ckeditor/ckeditor5-core/src/editor/editorui';

export default class MyEditorUI extends EditorUI {}

After:

import { EditorUI } from '@ckeditor/ckeditor5-ui/src/editorui/editorui';

export default class MyEditorUI extends EditorUI {}
