# About Supported Frameworks

Every Wix-managed headless project runs on Wix infrastructure, whatever framework you build with. How much Wix handles for you depends on that framework.

This article covers the 2 options, what each one gives you, and which frameworks Wix can run.

## Choose your framework

- **Astro** (full integration): Recommended if you're starting fresh or already build with Astro.
- **Other frameworks** (limited integration): Available if your build is client-only or runs on Cloudflare Workers.

> **Note:** If you need a framework Wix-managed headless doesn't support, or want your own hosting provider, use [self-managed headless](https://dev.wix.com/docs/go-headless/self-managed-headless/about-self-managed-headless.md) instead. It supports any framework, but you handle hosting and deployment yourself.

## Astro (full integration)

Scaffold a new project with AI or the Wix CLI, or link an Astro project you already have. [Wix's Astro integration](https://dev.wix.com/docs/go-headless/wix-managed-headless/full-integration-astro/about-the-astro-integration.md) handles authentication automatically, adds built-in [SEO support](https://dev.wix.com/docs/go-headless/wix-managed-headless/full-integration-astro/feature-guides/seo/about-seo-support.md), [analytics tracking](https://dev.wix.com/docs/go-headless/wix-managed-headless/full-integration-astro/feature-guides/track-analytics-events.md), and error and log monitoring, manages your secrets, and lets you add [extensions](https://dev.wix.com/docs/go-headless/wix-managed-headless/full-integration-astro/extensions/about-extensions.md).

## Other frameworks (limited integration)

Deploy a frontend you already have and keep the framework you built it with. Wix hosts and runs your site, and you preview and release it with the CLI. You create a [Wix client](https://dev.wix.com/docs/api-reference/articles/sdk-setup-and-usage/set-up-a-wix-client.md) and set up authentication yourself.

Wix doesn't build these projects. You build locally with your framework's own tooling and deploy the build output.

### What Wix can run

You can deploy client files, server code, or both:

- **Client files**: A static build, such as a single-page app built with React, Vue, or vanilla HTML and JavaScript.
- **Server code**: Anything targeting the Cloudflare Workers runtime. Deploy a backend on its own, a client and backend side by side, or a full-stack framework that has a Cloudflare adapter.

Frameworks whose server output can't run on Cloudflare Workers aren't supported.

### What you can deploy depends on how you create the project

The framework rules above describe what Wix can run. Each way of creating a project narrows them further:

| How you create the project | Client files | Server code |
| --- | --- | --- |
| [Initializing from your terminal](https://dev.wix.com/docs/go-headless/wix-managed-headless/other-frameworks/your-own-frontend/deploy-your-own-frontend-with-the-cli.md) | Any build output | Yes, when built for the Cloudflare Workers runtime |
| [Uploading your files](https://dev.wix.com/docs/go-headless/wix-managed-headless/other-frameworks/your-own-frontend/upload-a-static-site.md) | Static files only. See [What You Can Upload](https://dev.wix.com/docs/go-headless/wix-managed-headless/other-frameworks/your-own-frontend/what-you-can-upload.md). | No |
| [Sending a Claude Design](https://dev.wix.com/docs/go-headless/wix-managed-headless/other-frameworks/claude-design/send-a-claude-design-to-wix.md) | One HTML page | No |

## Capability comparison

| Capability | Astro | Other frameworks |
|---|---|---|
| Managed hosting with global CDN | ✓ | ✓ |
| Analytics tracking | ✓ | ✗ |
| Wix business APIs | ✓ | ✓ |
| Backend code | ✓ | ✓ When built for the Cloudflare Workers runtime |
| Automatic authentication | ✓ | ✗ |
| Built-in SEO support | ✓ | ✗ |
| Secrets management | ✓ | ✗ |
| Error and log monitoring | ✓ | ✗ |
| App extensions | ✓ | ✗ |
| CLI commands | Full command set | `preview` and `release` only |
| Builds | Wix builds your project | You build locally and release the build output |
