## Get Started

See our full [getting started docs](https://www.builder.io/c/docs/developers), or jump right into integration. We generally recommend to start with page buliding as your initial integration:


Integrate Page Building
Integrate Section Building
Integrate Structured Data




CTA to integrate page buliding




CTA to integrate section buliding




CTA to integrate CMS data


## Try it out!

Try the code in your browser with the [Builder playground](https://playground.builder.io):

## Why Builder.io?

Hardcoding layouts for frequently changing content bottlenecks your team and makes releases messy

Using an API-driven UI allows you to:

- Decouple page updates from deploys
- Schedule, a/b test, and personalize via APIs
- Reduce code + increase composability



## How does it work?

- Integrate the [Builder API or SDK](https://www.builder.io/c/docs/developers) to your site or app
- Create a free account on [builder.io](https://builder.io) and drag and drop to create and publish pages and content

## How is the performance?

Performance is our top priority. All content is delivered from the edge, renderable server side or statically, we [optimize the heck out of it](https://www.builder.io/blog/high-performance-no-code) and our SDKs are small and mighty.

Some example SDK sizes from Bundle.js:

| SDK | Size |
| ------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| React (Gen 2) | ![React Bundle Size](https://deno.bundlejs.com/[email protected]/sdk-react&treeshake=[*]) |
| Vue | ![Vue Bundle Size](https://deno.bundlejs.com/[email protected]/sdk-vue&treeshake=[*]&config={%22esbuild%22:{%22external%22:[%22@vue/runtime-dom%22,%22@vue/runtime-core%22,%22@vue/shared%22,%22vue%22]}}) |
| Qwik | ![Qwik Bundle Size](https://deno.bundlejs.com/[email protected]/sdk-qwik&treeshake=[*]&config={"esbuild":{"external":["@builder.io/qwik"]}}) |
| Svelte | ![Svelte Bundle Size](https://deno.bundlejs.com/[email protected]/sdk-svelte) |

Importantly, there are no hacks here - no iframes, no unneeded client side code or rendering, our rule of thumb is we produce content just like if you wrote it by hand. Assets are optimized, DOM is minimized, and it's all native to your framework (so all React components if you use React, Svelte for Svelte, etc)

See more about [how Builder works](https://www.builder.io/c/docs/how-builder-works-technical), or take a look at the [perf of our own site](https://pagespeed.web.dev/report?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.builder.io%2F) (built completely in Builder):

## How is the content structured?

In Builder, content is structured in [models](https://www.builder.io/c/docs/guides/developers-with-models), and customized with [custom fields](https://www.builder.io/c/docs/custom-fields) and [targeting](https://www.builder.io/c/docs/guides/targeting-and-scheduling)

- **Builder pages** - full drag and drop control between your site's header and footer. [Try it out](https://builder.io/fiddle/fb98adf93ad5467180329fdaa9711f27)
- **Builder sections** - make a part of a page visually editable in Builder and use our [targeting and scheduling](https://www.builder.io/c/docs/guides/targeting-and-scheduling) to decide who sees what. [Try it out](https://builder.io/fiddle/81b6a689f6c74c82bbd982497cf08e34)
- **Builder data** - fetch structured data from Builder and use it anywhere in your application (e.g. menu items, structured pages). [Try it out](https://builder.io/fiddle/193e3e3128b84c80b1a9c4ba19612244)

### Structuring your site

There are a lot of ways you can use Builder for your site. Some of the main questions you'll want to ask yourselves - what on your site should be in your code vs in Builder.

As a general rule, parts of your site that should be managed by non developers should probably be in Builder. Parts that are complex with a lot of code, should probably be in your codebase. Using [custom components](https://www.builder.io/c/docs/custom-react-components) in your Builder content can help you strike a good balance here as well

Here are some examples we recommend for how to structure various pages on your site, for instance for a headless commerce site:
