@wenhao-mui Hey Wen, Glad to hear you found it useful. I have been looking into integrating a CMS for quite a while now and never got to build it. There are multiple ways to do it. I'd probably go with client-side templates (similar to how HTMX handle this same problem https://htmx.org/extensions/client-side-templates/). If you build something interesting, feel free to share it here. I'd be very curious to check it out. |

Does this had any updates. Because I just saw while searching for React based page builders. We are having a use case for templating but the data should be fetched from content API. eg: suppose i have a content called invoice with defined field and values.

There are lots of opensource headless CMS (e.g.: umbraco, strapi) where their frontend rendering are tightly couple. I was planning to build a website builder and WYSWYG features and integrate with these CMS. Happened to come across destack and it already fulfil most of the website builder and WYSWYG.
I'm planning create a modular plugin on top of destack to integrate with various opensource, headless CMS. Rather than storing the output into the version control, I will store them in CMS. In short, I'm trying to replicate some of the enterprise CMS features but make opensource available XD
