Experience Editor support AND headless?












2















We're using Sitecore 9 for a greenfield project. One of the topics of discussion is whether or not we want to use EE vs. Headless. I'm not going to ask the pros vs cons of using one over the other, I have experience and done plenty of reading on that.



However, from my reading on JSS, it would seem that it's possible to have a mix of the two if you so desired. Some parts could have full EE support, but some parts can be completely headless if desired. Is that right, or is there something I'm missing that would prevent this?

          As long as your app is capable of server-side rendering (SSR) then you can render it on a Sitecore CM server and use Experience Editor (EE) to edit it.



          Beyond that, your app can live on a Node.js server somewhere (separate from Sitecore) and consume Layout Service data for rendering.



          That said, you are not able to use Experience Editor in a headless fashion. In other words, Experience Editor requires a Sitecore instance.



          The Application Modes section of the JSS docs might provide further insights: https://jss.sitecore.com/docs/fundamentals/application-modes



          Essentially, your app would run in Integrated Mode on the CM server in order to enable EE management. Then you could use either Headless SSR Mode or API only mode to run your app headlessly. With your app fetching Layout Service data from a Sitecore CD.

                    Histoire des bourses de valeurs

                    Image
                    L’ histoire des bourses de valeurs retrace les étapes de l'émergence d'espaces de valorisation des obligations, qui dominent ainsi jusqu'au milieu du XIX e  siècle. Auparavant, le financement des armements navals vénitiens et hollandais sous la forme d'actions reste une exception. Elles prennent leur essor au XVIII e  siècle sur un marché déjà mondialisé, soutenu par les banques centrales et le Trésor public. L'émergence de la presse écrite, qui publie des listes de cours, puis du télégraphe, qui les diffuse rapidement, permet aux entreprises de faire connaître leur activité et aux actions de prendre le relais vers le milieu du XIX e  siècle, le développement des chemins de fer, de l'extraction de matières premières et précieuses s'ajoutant à celui des banques et des canaux. La Bourse reste affaire de territoires et concessions. Jusqu'au XX e  siècle, les entreprises industrielles n'y prennent qu'une place minoritaire, avant d'y connaît...
