Uncaught ReferenceError: jQuery is not defined
at jquery.highlight-within-textarea.js:380

Gives me that error, I downloaded it with npm, included the files like this in my HTML



I can see that the linkage works as no 404 in console.

$('textarea').highlightTextarea({
words: ['Lorem ipsum', 'vulputate']
});

Uncaught ReferenceError: $ is not defined (I assume this one is related to the first error)

Any suggestions? Thanks.
