Contentstack is a headless CMS with an API-first approach. It is a CMS that developers can use to build powerful cross-platform applications in their favorite languages. Build your application frontend, and Contentstack will take care of the rest.

Contentstack provides the Live Preview Utils SDK to establish a communication channel between the various Contentstack SDKs and your website, transmitting live changes to the preview pane. Read More.

To install the package via npm, use the following command:

npm install @contentstack/live-preview-utils

Alternatively, if you want to include the package directly in your website HTML code, use the following command:

<script src="https://unpkg.com/@contentstack/[email protected]/dist/legacy/index.js"></script>

Since the Live Preview Utils SDK is responsible for communication, you need to only initialize it. Use the following command to initialize the SDK:

import ContentstackLivePreview from "@contentstack/live-preview-utils";

ContentstackLivePreview.init({
    stackDetails: {
        apiKey: "your-stack-api-key",
    },
});

Alternatively, if you want to initialize the SDK directly inside the HTML tag, use the ContentstackLivePreview.init() method as follows:

<script>
    ContentstackLivePreview.init({
        stackDetails: {
            apiKey: "your-stack-api-key",
        },
    });
</script>
