+### JSON Schema Validation
+
+Payload JSON fields fully support the [JSON schema](https://json-schema.org/) standard. By providing a schema in your field config, the editor will be guided in the admin UI, getting typeahead for properties and their formats automatically. When the document is saved, the default validation will prevent saving any invalid data in the field according to the schema in your config.
+
+If you only provide a URL to a schema, Payload will fetch the desired schema if it is publicly available. If not, it is recommended to add the schema directly to your config or import it from another file so that it can be implemented consistently in your project.

+  If your front-end application supports Server Components like the [Next.js App Router](https://nextjs.org/docs/app), etc., we suggest setting up [server-side Live Preview](./server).
+</Banner>
+
+While using Live Preview, the Admin panel emits a new `window.postMessage` event every time your document has changed. Your front-end application can listen for these events and re-render accordingly.
+
+If your front-end application is built with [React](#react) or [Vue](#vue), use the `useLivePreview` hooks that Payload provides. In the future, all other major frameworks like Svelte will be officially supported. If you are using any of these frameworks today, you can still integrate with Live Preview yourself using the underlying tooling that Payload provides. See [building your own hook](#building-your-own-hook) for more information.
+
+By default, all hooks accept the following args:

+
+### React
+
+If your front-end application is built with client-side [React](https://react.dev) like [Next.js Pages Router](https://nextjs.org/docs/pages), you can use the `useLivePreview` hook that Payload provides.
+
+First, install the `@payloadcms/live-preview-react` package:
+
+```bash
+npm install @payloadcms/live-preview-react
+```
+
+Then, use the `useLivePreview` hook in your React component:
+
+```tsx
+'use client'
+import { useLivePreview } from '@payloadcms/live-preview-react'
+import { Page as PageType } from '@/payload-types'
+
+// Fetch the page in a server component, pass it to the client component, then thread it through the hook
+// The hook will take over from there and keep the preview in sync with the changes you make
+// The `data` property will contain the live data of the document
+export const PageClient: React.FC<{
+  page: {
+    title: string
+  }
+}> = ({ page: initialPage }) => {
+  const { data } = useLivePreview<PageType>({
+    initialData: initialPage,
+    serverURL: PAYLOAD_SERVER_URL,
+    depth: 2,
+  })
+
+  return <h1>{data.title}</h1>
+}
+```
+
+### Vue
+
+If your front-end application is built with [Vue 3](https://vuejs.org) or [Nuxt 3](https://nuxt.js), you can use the `useLivePreview` composable that Payload provides.
+
+First, install the `@payloadcms/live-preview-vue` package:
+
+```bash
+npm install @payloadcms/live-preview-vue
+```
+
+Then, use the `useLivePreview` hook in your Vue component:
+
+```vue
+<script setup lang="ts">
+import type { PageData } from '~/types';
+import { defineProps } from 'vue';
+import { useLivePreview } from '@payloadcms/live-preview-vue';
+
+// Fetch the initial data on the parent component or using async state
+const props = defineProps<{ initialData: PageData }>();
+
+// The hook will take over from here and keep the preview in sync with the changes you make.
+// The `data` property will contain the live data of the document only when viewed from the Preview view of the Admin UI.
+const { data } = useLivePreview<PageData>({
+  initialData: props.initialData,
+  serverURL: "<PAYLOAD_SERVER_URL>",
+  depth: 2,
+});
+</script>
+
+<template>
+  <h1>{{ data.title }}</h1>
+</template>
+```
+
+### Building your own hook
+
+No matter what front-end framework you are using, you can build your own hook using the same underlying tooling that Payload provides.
+
+First, install the base `@payloadcms/live-preview` package:
+
+```bash
+npm install @payloadcms/live-preview
+```
+
+This package provides the following functions:
+
+| Path                     | Description                                                                                                                |
+| ------------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| **`subscribe`**          | Subscribes to the Admin panel's `window.postMessage` events and calls the provided callback function.                      |
+| **`unsubscribe`**        | Unsubscribes from the Admin panel's `window.postMessage` events.                                                           |
+| **`ready`**              | Sends a `window.postMessage` event to the Admin panel to indicate that the front-end is ready to receive messages.         |
+| **`isLivePreviewEvent`** | Checks if a `MessageEvent` originates from the Admin panel and is a Live Preview event, i.e. debounced form state.         |
+
+The `subscribe` function takes the following args:
+
+| Path               | Description                                                                                 |
+| ------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| **`callback`** \*  | A callback function that is called with `data` every time a change is made to the document. |
+| **`serverURL`** \* | The URL of your Payload server.                                                             |
+| **`initialData`**  | The initial data of the document. The live data will be merged in as changes are made.      |
+| **`depth`**        | The depth of the relationships to fetch. Defaults to `0`.                                   |
+
+With these functions, you can build your own hook using your front-end framework of choice:
+
+```tsx
+import { subscribe, unsubscribe } from '@payloadcms/live-preview'
+
+// To build your own hook, subscribe to Live Preview events using the `subscribe` function
+// It handles everything from:
+// 1. Listening to `window.postMessage` events
+// 2. Merging initial data with active form state
+// 3. Populating relationships and uploads
+// 4. Calling the `onChange` callback with the result
+// Your hook should also:
+// 1. Tell the Admin panel when it is ready to receive messages
+// 2. Handle the results of the `onChange` callback to update the UI
+// 3. Unsubscribe from the `window.postMessage` events when it unmounts
+```
+
+Here is an example of what the same `useLivePreview` React hook from above looks like under the hood:
+
+```tsx
+import { subscribe, unsubscribe, ready } from '@payloadcms/live-preview'
+import { useCallback, useEffect, useState, useRef } from 'react'
+
+export const useLivePreview = <T extends any>(props: {

+  const [data, setData] = useState<T>(initialData)
+  const [isLoading, setIsLoading] = useState<boolean>(true)
+  const hasSentReadyMessage = useRef<boolean>(false)
+
+  const onChange = useCallback((mergedData) => {
+    // When a change is made, the `onChange` callback will be called with the merged data
+    // Set this merged data into state so that React will re-render the UI
+    setData(mergedData)
+    setIsLoading(false)
+  }, [])
+
+  useEffect(() => {
+    // Listen for `window.postMessage` events from the Admin panel
+    // When a change is made, the `onChange` callback will be called with the merged data
+    const subscription = subscribe({
+      callback: onChange,
+      depth,
+      initialData,
+      serverURL,
+    })
+
+    // Once subscribed, send a `ready` message back up to the Admin panel
+    // This will indicate that the front-end is ready to receive messages
+    if (!hasSentReadyMessage.current) {

+
+## Example
+
+For a working demonstration of this, check out the official [Live Preview Example](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/tree/main/examples/live-preview/payload). There you will find examples of various front-end frameworks and how to integrate each one of them, including:
+
+- [Next.js App Router](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/tree/main/examples/live-preview/next-app)
+- [Next.js Pages Router](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/tree/main/examples/live-preview/next-pages)
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+#### Relationships and/or uploads are not populating
+
+If you are using relationships or uploads in your front-end application, and your front-end application runs on a different domain than your Payload server, you may need to configure [CORS](../configuration/overview) to allow requests to be made between the two domains. This includes sites that are running on a different port or subdomain. Similarly, if you are protecting resources behind user authentication, you may also need to configure [CSRF](../authentication/overview#csrf-protection) to allow cookies to be sent between the two domains. For example:
+
+```ts
+// payload.config.ts
+{
+  // ...
+  // If your site is running on a different domain than your Payload server,
+  // This will allows requests to be made between the two domains
+  cors: {
+    [
+      'http://localhost:3001' // Your front-end application
+    ],
+  },
+  // If you are protecting resources behind user authentication,
+  // This will allow cookies to be sent between the two domains
+  csrf: {
+    [
+      'http://localhost:3001' // Your front-end application
+    ],
+  },
+}
+```
+
+#### Relationships and/or uploads disappear after editing a document
+
+It is possible that either you are setting an improper [`depth`](../getting-started/concepts#depth) in your initial request and/or your `useLivePreview` hook, or they're mismatched. Ensure that the `depth` parameter is set to the correct value, and that it matches exactly in both places. For example:
+
+```tsx
+// Your initial request
+const { docs } = await payload.find({
+  collection: 'pages',
+  depth: 1, // Ensure this is set to the proper depth for your application
+  where: {
+    slug: {
+      equals: 'home',
+    },
+  },
+})
+```
+
+```tsx
+// Your hook
+const { data } = useLivePreview<PageType>({
+  initialData: initialPage,
+  serverURL: PAYLOAD_SERVER_URL,
+  depth: 1, // Ensure this matches the depth of your initial request
+})
+```

-While using Live Preview, the Admin panel emits a new `window.postMessage` event every time a change is made to the document. Your front-end application can listen for these events and re-render accordingly.
+There are two ways to use Live Preview in your own application depending on whether your front-end framework supports server components:
 
-Wiring your front-end into Live Preview is easy. If your front-end application is built with React or Next.js, use the [`useLivePreview`](#react) React hook that Payload provides. In the future, all other major frameworks like Vue, Svelte, etc will be officially supported. If you are using any of these frameworks today, you can still integrate with Live Preview yourself using the underlying tooling that Payload provides. See [building your own hook](#building-your-own-hook) for more information.
-
-By default, all hooks accept the following args:
-
-| Path               | Description                                                                            |
-| ------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| **`serverURL`** \* | The URL of your Payload server.                                                        |
-| **`initialData`**  | The initial data of the document. The live data will be merged in as changes are made. |
-| **`depth`**        | The depth of the relationships to fetch. Defaults to `0`.                              |
-| **`apiRoute`**     | The path of your API route as defined in `routes.api`. Defaults to `/api`.             |
-
-_\* An asterisk denotes that a property is required._

-| --------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| **`data`**      | The live data of the document, merged with the initial data.     |
-| **`isLoading`** | A boolean that indicates whether or not the document is loading. |

 **With Live Preview you can render your front-end application directly within the Admin panel. As you type, your changes take effect in real-time. No need to save a draft or publish your changes.**
 
-Live Preview works by rendering an iframe on the page that loads your front-end application.

These events are emitted every time a change is made to the document. Your app then listens for these events and re-renders itself with the data it receives.

Live Preview works in both server-side as well as client-side environments. See [Front-End](./frontend) for more details.

+<Banner type="info">
+  Server-side Live Preview is only for front-end frameworks that support the concept of Server Components, i.e. [React Server Components](https://react.dev/reference/rsc/server-components). If your front-end application is built with a client-side framework like the [Next.js Pages Router](https://nextjs.org/docs/pages), [React Router](https://reactrouter.com), [Vue 3](https://vuejs.org), etc., see [client-side Live Preview](./client).
+</Banner>
+
+Server-side Live Preview works by making a roundtrip to the server every time your document is saved, i.e. draft save, autosave, or publish. While using Live Preview, the Admin panel emits a new `window.postMessage` event which your front-end application can use to invoke this process. In Next.js, this means simply calling `router.refresh()` which will hydrate the HTML using new data straight from the [Local API](../local-api/overview).
+
+<Banner type="warning">
+  It is recommended that you enable [Autosave](../versions/autosave) alongside Live Preview to make the experience feel more responsive.
+</Banner>
+
+If your front-end application is built with [React](#react), you can use the `RefreshRouteOnChange` function that Payload provides. In the future, all other major frameworks like Vue and Svelte will be officially supported. If you are using any of these frameworks today, you can still integrate with Live Preview yourself using the underlying tooling that Payload provides. See [building your own router refresh component](#building-your-own-router-refresh-component) for more information.
+
+### React
+
+If your front-end application is built with [React](https://react.dev) or [Next.js](https://nextjs.org), you can use the `RefreshRouteOnSave` component that Payload provides.
+
+First, install the `@payloadcms/live-preview-react` package:
+
+```bash
+npm install @payloadcms/live-preview-react
+```
+
+Then, render `RefreshRouteOnSave` anywhere in your `page.tsx`. Here's an example:
+
+`page.tsx`:
+
+```tsx
+import { RefreshRouteOnSave } from './RefreshRouteOnSave.tsx'
+import { getPayloadHMR } from '@payloadcms/next'
+import config from '../payload.config'
+
+export default async function Page() {
+  const payload = await getPayloadHMR({ config })
+
+  const page = await payload.find({
+    collection: 'pages',
+    draft: true
+  })
+
+  return (
+    <Fragment>
+      <RefreshRouteOnSave />
+      <h1>{page.title}</h1>
+    </Fragment>
+  )
+}
+```
+
+`RefreshRouteOnSave.tsx`:
+
+```tsx
+'use client'
+import { RefreshRouteOnSave as PayloadLivePreview } from '@payloadcms/live-preview-react'
+import { useRouter } from 'next/navigation.js'
+import React from 'react'
+
+export const RefreshRouteOnSave: React.FC = () => {
+  const router = useRouter()
+  return <PayloadLivePreview refresh={router.refresh} serverURL={process.env.PAYLOAD_SERVER_URL} />
+}
+```
+
+## Building your own router refresh component
+
+No matter what front-end framework you are using, you can build your own component using the same underlying tooling that Payload provides.
+
+First, install the base `@payloadcms/live-preview` package:
+
+```bash
+npm install @payloadcms/live-preview
+```
+
+This package provides the following functions:
+
+| Path                  | Description                                                                                                                                |
+| --------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
+| **`ready`**           | Sends a `window.postMessage` event to the Admin panel to indicate that the front-end is ready to receive messages.                         |
+| **`isDocumentEvent`** | Checks if a `MessageEvent` originates from the Admin panel and is a document-level event, i.e. draft save, autosave, publish, etc.         |
+
+With these functions, you can build your own hook using your front-end framework of choice:
+
+```tsx
+import { ready, isDocumentEvent } from '@payloadcms/live-preview'
+
+// To build your own component:
+// 1. Listen for document-level `window.postMessage` events sent from the Admin panel
+// 2. Tell the Admin panel when it is ready to receive messages
+// 3. Refresh the route every time a new document-level event is received
+// 4. Unsubscribe from the `window.postMessage` events when it unmounts
+```
+
+Here is an example of what the same `RefreshRouteOnSave` React component from above looks like under the hood:
+
+```tsx
+'use client'
+
+import type React from 'react'
+
+import { isDocumentEvent, ready } from '@payloadcms/live-preview'
+import { useCallback, useEffect, useRef } from 'react'
+
+export const RefreshRouteOnSave: React.FC<{
+  apiRoute?: string
+  depth?: number
+  refresh: () => void
+  serverURL: string
+}> = (props) => {
+  const { apiRoute, depth, refresh, serverURL } = props
+  const hasSentReadyMessage = useRef<boolean>(false)
+
+  const onMessage = useCallback(
+    (event: MessageEvent) => {
+      if (isDocumentEvent(event, serverURL)) {
+        if (typeof refresh === 'function') {
+          refresh()
+        }
+      }
+    },
+    [refresh, serverURL],
+  )
+
+  useEffect(() => {
+    if (typeof window !== 'undefined') {
+      window.addEventListener('message', onMessage)
+    }
+
+    if (!hasSentReadyMessage.current) {
+      hasSentReadyMessage.current = true
+
+      ready({
+        serverURL,
+      })
+    }
+
+    return () => {
+      if (typeof window !== 'undefined') {
+        window.removeEventListener('message', onMessage)
+      }
+    }
+  }, [serverURL, onMessage, depth, apiRoute])
+
+  return null
+}
+```

+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+#### Updates do not appear as fast as client-side Live Preview
+
+If you are noticing that updates feel less snappy than client-side Live Preview (i.e. the `useLivePreview` hook), this is because of how the two differ in how they work—instead of emitting events against form state as you type, server-side Live Preview refreshes the route after a new document is saved. You can use autosave to mimic this effect. Try decreasing the value of `versions.autoSave.interval` to make the experience feel more responsive:
+
+```ts
+// collection.ts
+{
+   versions: {
+    drafts: {
+      autosave: {
+        interval: 375,
+      },
+    },
+  },
+}
+```

+Those applications run directly alongside this one. Follow the instructions in each respective README to get started. If you are setting up authentication for another front-end, please consider contributing to this repo with your own example!
+
+To learn more about this, [check out how Payload can be used in its various headless capacities](https://payloadcms.com/blog/the-ultimate-guide-to-using-nextjs-with-payload).
 
 ## Quick Start
 
 To spin up this example locally, follow these steps:
 
 1. Clone this repo
-2. `cd` into this directory and run `yarn` or `npm install`
-3. `cp .env.example .env` to copy the example environment variables
-4. `yarn dev` or `npm run dev` to start the server and seed the database
-5. `open http://localhost:3000/admin` to access the admin panel
-6. Login with email `demo@payloadcms.com` and password `demo`
+1. `cd` into this directory and run `pnpm i --ignore-workspace`\*, `yarn`, or `npm install`
+
+   > \*If you are running using pnpm within the Payload Monorepo, the `--ignore-workspace` flag is needed so that pnpm generates a lockfile in this example's directory despite the fact that one exists in root.
+
+1. `cp .env.example .env` to copy the example environment variables
+
+   > Adjust `PAYLOAD_PUBLIC_SITE_URL` in the `.env` if your front-end is running on a separate domain or port.
+
+1. `pnpm dev`, `yarn dev` or `npm run dev` to start the server
+   - Press `y` when prompted to seed the database
+1. `open http://localhost:3000` to access the home page
+1. `open http://localhost:3000/admin` to access the admin panel
+   - Login with email `demo@payloadcms.com` and password `demo`
 
 That's it! Changes made in `./src` will be reflected in your app. See the [Development](#development) section for more details.
 
 ## How it works
 
-The `users` collection exposes all [auth-related operations](https://payloadcms.com/docs/authentication/operations) needed to create a fully custom workflow on your front-end using the REST or GraphQL APIs, including:
+### Collections
 
-- `Me`
-- `Login`
-- `Logout`
-- `Refresh Token`
-- `Verify Email`
-- `Unlock`
-- `Forgot Password`
-- `Reset Password`
+See the [Collections](https://payloadcms.com/docs/configuration/collections) docs for details on how to extend this functionality.
 
-The [`cors`](https://payloadcms.com/docs/production/preventing-abuse#cross-origin-resource-sharing-cors), [`csrf`](https://payloadcms.com/docs/production/preventing-abuse#cross-site-request-forgery-csrf), and [`cookies`](https://payloadcms.com/docs/authentication/config#options) settings are also configured to ensure that the admin panel and front-end can communicate with each other securely.
+- #### Users (Authentication)
+
+  Users are auth-enabled and encompass both admins and regular users based on the value of their `roles` field. Only `admin` users can access your admin panel to manage your content whereas `user` can authenticate on your front-end and access-controlled interfaces. See [Access Control](#access-control) for more details.
+
+  **Local API**
+
+  On the server, Payload provides all operations needed to authenticate users server-side using the Local API. In Next.js that might look something like this:
+
+  ```ts
+    import { headers as getHeaders } from 'next/headers.js'
+    import { getPayloadHMR } from '@payloadcms/next'
+    import config from '../../payload.config'
+
+    export default async function AccountPage({ searchParams }) {
+      const headers = getHeaders()
+      const payload = await getPayloadHMR({ config: configPromise })
+      const { permissions, user } = await payload.auth({ headers })
+
+      if (!user) {
+        redirect(
+          `/login?error=${encodeURIComponent('You must be logged in to access your account.')}&redirect=/account`,
+        )
+      }
+
+      return ...
+    }
+  ```
+
+  **HTTP**
+
+  The `users` collection also opens an http-layer to expose all [auth-related operations](https://payloadcms.com/docs/authentication/operations) through the REST and GraphQL APIs, including:
+
+  - `Me`
+  - `Login`
+  - `Logout`
+  - `Refresh Token`
+  - `Verify Email`
+  - `Unlock`
+  - `Forgot Password`
+  - `Reset Password`
+
+  This might look something like this:
+
+  ```ts
+  await fetch('/api/users/me', {
+    method: 'GET',
+    credentials: 'include',
+    headers: {
+      'Content-Type': 'application/json',
+    },
+  })
+  ```
+
+  > NOTE: You can still use the HTTP APIs on the server if you don't have access to the Local API.
+
+### Security
+
+The [`cors`](https://payloadcms.com/docs/production/preventing-abuse#cross-origin-resource-sharing-cors), [`csrf`](https://payloadcms.com/docs/production/preventing-abuse#cross-site-request-forgery-csrf), and [`cookies`](https://payloadcms.com/docs/authentication/config#options) settings are all configured to ensure that the admin panel and front-end can communicate with each other securely.
+
+For additional help, see the [Authentication](https://payloadcms.com/docs/authentication/overview#authentication-overview) docs.

 To run Payload in production, you need to build and serve the Admin panel. To do so, follow these steps:
 
-1. First invoke the `payload build` script by running `yarn build` or `npm run build` in your project root. This creates a `./build` directory with a production-ready admin bundle.
