About Puck
Puck is an open-source visual drag-and-drop page editor for React (puckeditor.com) that embeds directly into any React application and is entirely unopinionated about data storage, making it compatible with any headless CMS or custom backend. Developers define reusable component blocks — layout sections, rich text, images — and content teams assemble pages visually without writing code; the resulting data is stored however the host application chooses. It supports external data sources via adaptors, plugin-based UI extensions, and is MIT-licensed to avoid vendor lock-in.
