If you’re one of those folks looking for a new CMS and you want to maintain a similar authoring experience, here’s a fully-customizable and themeable admin toolbar web component that you can use on the front-end of your site.

I put together a Stackblitz to show of some theming examples that you could use for Admin Bar Component based on a few CMSs I've used in the past. This also set a few preset buttons to some common pages you might use for each CMS. If you have suggestions for more themes, please send me a fork of it with your suggestions.

Here's a link to the Stackblitz:

I split the Craft CMS plugin, Admin Bar, into two things:

Admin Bar Component, a web component that can be used on any framework or front-end.

Admin Bar for Craft CMS, the plugin that lets you add a Twig tag and some custom settings to automatically add Admin Bar Component to Twig-based projects.

Here’s a write up about why this was done:

A "dual content model approach" that uses:
– a primary #ContentModel to define content for reuse across channels and
– a channel-specific content model for content that won't be reused elsewhere.

Nice discussion about making trade-offs to improve flexibility and the #AuthorExperience in #ContentStrategy.
