# Setting up Pintura Image Editor with jQuery File Upload For a quick start use the [jQuery File Upload example project](https://github.com/pqina/pintura-example-dropzone) as a guideline. Before continuing it's highly recommended to read the [JavaScript](../javascript/) installation guide as it clarifies important internal functionality of the image editor. ## Default implementation example In the default example below we'll use the [openDefaultEditor](../../api/ui/exports/#editor) method to quickly create an image editor. This creates a "default" editor that has all available plugins loaded and comes preset with all plugin default options and English locale. Each of these settings can be adjusted freely. ```html ``` ## Advanced implementation example In this example we'll create a custom editor, using a custom set of plugins, locale, and available options. While this example is a lot more verbose it does allow us to create a more optimal editor package. The build process will tree-shake unused functionality resulting in a smaller build target. ```html ``` ## Next steps With the editor set up, we can continue to configure the editor to our liking by adjusting the available options exposed by [the editor API](../../api/image-editor/)
