Use your code components and the stack of your choice. No more being pestered for HTML changes :)

Choose your framework:

import { Builder } from '@builder.io/react'
 
// Register our heading component for use in 
// the visual editor
const Heading = props => (
  <h1 className={style}>{props.title}</h1>
)
 
Builder.registerComponent(Heading, { 
  name: 'Heading',
  inputs: [{ name: 'title', type: 'text' }]
})

import { BuilderComponent, builder } from '@builder.io/react'
  
builder.init('YOUR_KEY')
  
export default let BuilderPage = () => {
  const [pageJson, setPage] = useState(null)
 
  useEffect(() => { 
    builder.get('page', { url: '/' })
      .promise().then(setPage)
  , [])
 
  return <BuilderComponent model="page" content={pageJson} />
}

• Integrate the Builder API or SDK to your site or app
• Create a free account on builder.io and drag and drop to create and publish pages and content

In Builder, content is structured in models, and customized with custom fields and targeting

• Builder pages - full drag and drop control between your site's header and footer. Try it out
• Builder sections - make a part of a page visually editable in Builder and use our targeting and scheduling to decide who sees what. Try it out
• Builder data - fetch structured data from Builder and use it anywhere in your application (e.g. menu items, structured pages). Try it out

Next.js	Gatsby	Vue	Nuxt	Angular	Web Components

Don't see an integration you're looking for? Our HTML API, Content APIs, and GraphQL APIs works for all tech stacks and frameworks.

This repo houses all of the various SDKs, usage examples, starter projects, and plugins.

Don't use React? See our getting started guide for any framework or platform here

npm install @builder.io/react

Grab a free account at builder.io and find your API key

Next, create a new page in Builder with URL /something and publish it.

Then, in your code:

import { builder, BuilderComponent } from '@builder.io/react';

builder.init(YOUR_KEY);

And in your router

// You can use the url="..." prop to automatically fetch the content for that URL,
// or omit this prop and Builder.io will fetch the corresponding page for the current
// location.pathname, if available
<Route path="/something" render={() => <BuilderComponent model="page" url="/something" />}>

Create a new page with url "/something" in Builder and change the preview URL to localhost:port/something (e.g. localhost:8888/something if your dev server is on port 8888) and edit!

See more info on setting up your preview urls here.

Also, see the full React API here

See this design systems example for lots of examples using your design system custom components storybook

👉Tip: want to limit page building to only your components? Try components only mode

Register a component

import { Builder } from '@builder.io/react';

const SimpleText = props => <h1>{props.text}</h1>;

Builder.registerComponent(SimpleText, {
  name: 'Simple Text',
  inputs: [{ name: 'text', type: 'text' }],
});

Then back at your page

import './simple-text'

// ...

<Route path="/something" render={() => <BuilderComponent model="page" url="/something">}>

Open the dashboard and use it!

See our docs site for additional help and information, or contact us if you run into any issues or questions!

For lots of examples of using React components in Builder, see the source for our built-in Builder blocks here and widgets here

👉Tip: see our guides for Next.js and Gatsby for best support for those frameworks

One of Builder's most powerful features is allowing the creation of new pages for you. See a simple example of how to do this with react-router below:

import { BuilderComponent, builder } from '@builder.io/react'

builder.init('YOUR_KEY')

export default let CatchAllPage = () => {
  const [notFound, setNotFound] = useState()

  return notFound ? <NotFound /> : <BuilderComponent
        model="page"
        contentLoaded={(content) => {
          setNotFound(!content);
        }}
      >
        <Loading/>
     </BuilderComponent>

}


// Then in your app.js
export default () => (
  <Switch>
    <Route path="/" component={Home} />
    {/* Your other routes... */}
    <Route component={CatchAllPage} />
  </Switch>
);

Check out our quick start guide for options for many frameworks, including our HTML API that works for any site

let page = await request(
  `https://cdn.builder.io/api/v1/html/page?url=${PAGE_URL}&apiKey=${YOUR_KEY}`
);
if (page) {
  let html = page.data.html;
  // Put the html in your page template between your header and footer and you are done!
}

✨Tip: You can make reusable components for your Builder.io pages using symbols

There are a lot of ways you can use Builder for your site. Some of the main questions you'll want to ask yourselves - what on your site should be in your code vs in Builder.

As a general rule, parts of your site that should be managed by non developers should probably be in Builder. Parts that are complex with a lot of code, should probably be in your codebase. Using custom components in your Builder content can help you strike a good balance here as well

Here are some examples we recommend for how to structure various pages on your site, for instance for a headless commerce site:

Builder.io gives you a ton more power and control than just page building. Check our guides on

• Custom models
• Custom design systems in Builder.io
• SEO optimizing Builder.io content
• Custom React components in the visual editor
• Components only mode

Additional framework support:

• Gatsby
• Next.js
• Angular
• HTML API (for any framework)

As well as some handy power features like:

• Symbols
• Dynamic data fetching and binding
• State handling
• Content API
• GraphQL API
• Webhooks
• Targeting and scheduling content
• Extending Builder.io with plugins
