Is it possible to add Elegant to an existing Nextjs project?

Open HamedMP opened this issue 2 years ago • 4 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I already have a running landing page in Nextjs, and I want to add /blog to it. Elegant caught my eye but it seems it gives a full project.

Describe the solution you'd like I'd like to add elegant to the current Nextjs app, pref. be able to specify which route it should host its main page.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Other CMS providers.

Hey @HamedMP 👋

Thanks for opening an issue and providing us feedback on the project.

Yeah in the current version, it is set up to build a complete project. Though it might not be the most frictionless experience, you can run the npx elegant-init command on top of your existing project and then discard the stuff you don't want.

I'm actually in the process of architecting the next major version, which will abstract the core Elegant functionality into a separate package so that it's easier to integrate into existing projects.

If you don't mind me asking, which features caught your attention? What features would you like to have in your existing app?

Also would love this feature, adding to existing nextjs app.

We just want to add a blog fast to a nextjs project. Needs a CMS so non technical teammates can use.

I'll try doing your suggestion.
