Squidex

Squidex is shipped with a powerful management UI based on state of the art frontend technologies to make the daily work for content editors as easy as possible.

This integration allows business users to build personalized digital experiences (web sites, web apps, mobile apps, etc.) by re-purposing content from your Squidex apps. It also enables developers to use their preferred front-end tools to build these applications.

Adding the Squidex integration to your Uniform project adds new parameter types that you can add to your Uniform Canvas components.
