Stackbit: Best visual editor
We recommend Stackbit to teams that need an on-the-glass visual editor. As a framework agnostic headless integrator, you can use Stackbit with any other headless CMS or self-host your CMS data.
On-the-glass WYSIWYG editor
Stackbit provides a WYSIWYG editor that works with Sanity, Contentful, and any other CMS without slowing down your website. If you're looking for a self-hosted option with a stellar visual editor, we recommend using Stackbit with its own git-based CMS.
You can change content directly on-screen without navigating complex schemas on Stackbit.
Components don’t need to be written in any specific way or registered to use the on-the-glass editor, and the editor doesn't affect website performance as it isn’t part of the production code.
Self-hosting of CMS data
If you're looking for a self-hosted option with a stellar visual editor, we recommend using Stackbit with its own git-based CMS.
Organizations with sensitive data or strict security or compliance requirements may need to fully own and control their CMS data and infrastructure.
Framework agnostic
As a framework-agnostic headless integrator, Stackbit offers maximum flexibility and portability for your code and tech stack.
You can use their git-based CMS forever or move to any other CMS at any time.
You can stay on Hugo, Jekyll, or Gatsby and upgrade to Next.js, Vue, Nuxt, or anything else later.
Even if your tech stack changes, your content creation experience remains the same. For content authors, this means Stackbit could be the last platform they’ll need to learn.
This also makes Stackbit a powerful tool for website migrations. With Stackbit bridging the old and new CMSes, teams can migrate pieces of a platform while authors continue managing and editing content on Stackbit.
