How can I add TinyMCE Editor in dynamically added <textarea>

How can I add a TinyMCE editor to all <textarea> that were added through Javascript?

Here is my code:

function addFields() {
  var number = document.getElementById("no_of_description").value;
  var row = document.getElementById("clone-row");
  // $("#clone-row").empty()

  while (row.hasChildNodes()) {
    row.removeChild(row.lastChild);
  }
  for (i = 1; i <= number; i++) {
    var column = document.createElement("div");
    column.setAttribute("class", "col-6 clone-column")
    row.appendChild(column);

    var label_title = document.createElement("label");
    label_title.setAttribute("for", "title_" + i)
    label_title.innerHTML = "Title " + i

    var input_title = document.createElement("input");
    input_title.setAttribute("class", "form-control");
    input_title.setAttribute("type", "text");
    input_title.setAttribute("id", "title_" + i);
    input_title.setAttribute("name", "title_" + i);
    input_title.setAttribute("placeholder", "Title" + i);


    column.appendChild(label_title);
    column.appendChild(input_title);
    column.appendChild(document.createElement("br"));

    var label_description = document.createElement("label");
    label_description.setAttribute("for", "description_" + i)
    label_description.innerHTML = "Description " + i

    var textarea = document.createElement("textarea");
    textarea.setAttribute("class", "form-control custom_TinyMCE");
    textarea.setAttribute("id", "description_" + i);
    textarea.setAttribute("name", "description_" + i);
    textarea.setAttribute("rows", 8);
    textarea.setAttribute("cols", 80);

    column.appendChild(label_description);
    column.appendChild(textarea);
    column.appendChild(document.createElement("br"));
    
    // tinymce.init({selector:'.custom_TinyMCE'});
    // This work only for last added <textarea>

  }
}

</div>

There are two ways you could init a TinyMCE instance in your example.

You can either use target: textarea or selector: "textarea#description_" + i in the init function.

See https://fiddle.tiny.cloud/Buhaab for a working demo.
