Core Principles

Visual Editor First

Storyblok's Visual Editor is the primary editing experience:

• Always apply storyblokEditable() to components
• Configure the Storyblok Bridge for live editing
• Test components in the Visual Editor, not just code

Content Delivery vs Management API

Framework Integration

Token Security

Never expose these in client-side code:

• Preview tokens (show draft content)
• Personal access tokens (full write access)
• OAuth tokens (scoped access)

Safe for client-side:

• Public tokens (read-only published content)

How to Use

Read individual rule files for detailed explanations and code examples:

rules/model-component-structure.md
rules/sdk-storyblok-editable.md
rules/editor-bridge-setup.md
rules/perf-image-optimization.md
rules/security-token-handling.md

Each rule file contains:

• Brief explanation of why it matters
• Incorrect code example with explanation
• Correct code example with explanation
• Configuration tables and references
