Technical Requirements
As a headless CMS, Storyblok stores your content and assets and delivers them over an API. It doesn’t render or host your website. The frontend that turns that content into pages is your own application, deployed to a hosting provider of your choice.
What Storyblok hosts
Section titled “What Storyblok hosts”Storyblok handles the parts of the stack that manage, store, and deliver content:
- The editing interface at
app.storyblok.com, including the Visual Editor. - The content, served through the Content Delivery API and cached on a global CDN.
- The assets, served from the asset CDN and transformed on demand using the Image Service.
What you host
Section titled “What you host”Your frontend is an application that you build, deploy, and run:
- The code that fetches content from the Content Delivery API and renders it.
- The domain your visitors use.
- The preview deployment that the Visual Editor loads.
The traffic between your frontend and Storyblok counts toward your plan’s quota.
Supported hosting providers and frameworks
Section titled “Supported hosting providers and frameworks”Storyblok can work with any hosting provider—choose the one that meets your needs and supports your stack. To get started with Vercel or Netlify, use one of the Blueprints.
