I am getting the following exception being thrown using your example code while attempting to run it on iOS ( Android is working as expected )

PlatformException (PlatformException(evaluateJavaScript_failed, Failed evaluating JavaScript, JavaScript string was: '$(".note-placeholder").html("Your text here...");'
Error Domain=WKErrorDomain Code=5 "JavaScript execution returned a result of an unsupported type" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=JavaScript execution returned a result of an unsupported type}, null))

I have a work around for now... in your html_editor.dart a modified setHint() to use document.getElementsByClassName.

setHint(String text) { String hint = "document.getElementsByClassName('note-placeholder')[0].innerHTML = '" + text + "';"; _controller.evaluateJavascript(hint); }

which works in iOS and Android but seems odd that I had to do that to get it to work in iOS... (feels like I have a build environment issue but I do not see anything wrong )

above work around only works for iOS < 14. same type of error occurs using above work around or original solution with iOS 14.3

I forked this library and have made some pretty massive changes to it, you can find it here. I've fixed this issue (and many others) in that library.

I would have preferred to create PRs but it seems this library is lacking maintenance so I took it upon myself.
