Hey HN,

If you manage a Next.js marketing site and have non-technical teammates who want to move faster, we've created Makeswift for you.

We've just launched a way for engineers to incrementally add visual editing capabilities to their Next.js sites and would love some feedback.

What do you think?

the marketing info says "No vendor lock-in" but there's the reliance of an API-KEY to a SAAS-vendor - which is "Vendor Lock-in" no?

in terms of open-source, where can we find the GitHub repo to see the components?

You only need the API key to continue visually editing the page. If you want to export your content you can just export your page data as JSON and pass it to the open source Makeswift Page component found in this package:
