Hot reload for your preview sessions !

Hey ! Today, we are happy to release a major improvement to our preview feature. Our goal at prismic.io has always been to free developers from CMS constraints and provide the best user experience to the editorial/marketing team.

prismic.io provides unlimited preview sessions to editors to preview their content on their website and apps whether it's in a draft or a scheduled state. This allows marketing teams for example to have a full preview of their website for a specific date and time. This can be extremely useful to manage upcoming sales, product releases, etc.

Hot reload

We strive to be as close to our community of users as possible and improvements requests were shared in our Slack club. Some users told us about improving the preview refresh, and we tried to go beyond that by enabling a hot reload for your preview.

With this update, every change saved during a prismic.io preview session will be seen directly on your website without having to click on the preview button again. Fewer clicks, less hassle, more results.

As usual, we'll deploy this feature progressively to your repositories. If you're interested in being one of the first to test it out, don't hesitate to ask for it through the club or through the chat support.

A lot more improvements for the previews as well as many other features are coming!
