How do you use pico with an embedded editor?

Is there a way to exclude an element from pico?

I tried pico with easyMDE editor and it's no longer usable. See screenshots.

The first image shows how the editor should look (light mode).

In the second image, the toolbar is stacked vertically and selecting a button creates a white strip. The text preview is very light grey and not readable. Text should be black. The screenshot uses dark mode because in light mode the toolbar is not visible.

As Pico affects all the HTML tags, you probably have to override the styles for the text editor.
width: auto for the editor's buttons, and data-theme="light" for the editable section, and probably a lot more.
There is no easy solution in this case.

Thanks, I’ll try your suggestions and see how far it’s possible to prevent pico influencing the embedded editor.
