HTML elements injected via JS (quilljs) conflicting with flexbox

I'm trying to create a very simple page, essentially no different than stack overflow's layout in that there is a sidebar and a "content" area which can scroll. My content area however is meant to be taken up entirely by a quilljs text editor.

I just create a div and tell quilljs to use that div for the editor...

    <article>

         <div id="editor"></div>

    </article>



    <script>

        var quill = new Quill('#editor', {theme: 'snow'});

    </script>

Which works fine in theory, however quilljs injects an additional div above the editor div, so I end up with:

     <article>

         <div id="ql-toolbar"></div>

         <div id="editor"></div>

    </article>

If I inspect and delete the toolbar div manually, I can see that the editor div is sized as desired (it fills the entire article element and any overflowing text has a scrollbar).

My conclusion is that injecting the additional div toolbar is the root cause of the issue, however I can't seem to find a good solution...

The only solution I currently see is to manually adjust the size of the "editor" div in order to compensate for the additional div that I know will be added.

 #editor {

  max-height: calc(100% - 40px);

 }

However this solution falls apart pretty quick with the prospect of variable size toolbars and also when manually adjusting the window width. I'd like to find a more robust solution if one exists.

Here's a codepen of the issue (notice how the bottom of the scollbar is cut off):

Thanks for the reply, clearly I don't have a good grasp on flex yet. I did have trouble replicating this fix locally, and identified the issue a a lack of a doctype declaration in my local html page.
