Different formatting/style requires multiple chunks of DOM. Therefore if you need to provide different formatting to the textarea, you can give a try like what @ihateonions and @Louis suggested. 😉

Are you talking about adding features for the user to select a bit of text within a textarea and make bold, italic, or a colour etc? If so, then try using something like the tinymce wysiwyg editor. Everything you require is included and you can even download an additional plugin to add more functions.

I don't want to use any framework or any kind of editor
