There's a vibrant industry of similar tools - but lots of differences and room to innovate! Just a few of the differences: Plasmic.... - Is not specific to MUI - Supports actual de…

Fixed, thanks!

We still have work to do to make self hosting (much) easier, but yes, that's the plan!

I talk about the "why" a bit above, but we've talked about how to open source it internally since almost its inception, but there's work involved in open sourcing that we just had …

You can think of it like that - GrapesJS ultimately outputs HTML that exists in its own universe, whereas Plasmic focuses more on integrating with existing codebases, where you mig…

I think another thing interesting about Plasmic is that it is a bit ambitious in trying to combine some seemingly disparate genres: - Webflow, Wordpress and other page builders - R…

Congrats on launching! I work on Plasmic. I have a sibling post on how I think we're quite different. But just to also clarify some points: (1) Plasmic does support git as well. (2…

I work on Plasmic. I think we're quite different! I would summarize as: - FlyCode focuses on text/image changes within your existing code. - Plasmic lets you create and edit UIs us…

Thanks, super helpful! (I haven't personally watched it yet, but our team has picked it up.)

Hi! Thanks for the feedback on Plasmic. Re: "super heavy" output: A blank component should result in one corresponding div. Maybe you're weighing the API client library? You can co…

Plasmic ( https://www.plasmic.app ) is a WYSIWYG visual page builder + headless CMS that's built for Next.js and other modern SSG frameworks. It lets non-dev teams freely create an…
