Summary

Updated the live preview documentation to reflect the new cross-window architecture. Live preview now opens in a separate browser window instead of being embedded in the editor, and requires both windows to remain open in the same browser session.

Changes

  • Clarified that live preview opens in a separate browser window
  • Updated comparison table to show "Separate window (local only)" instead of "In the editor"
  • Changed button icon reference from target to media-play
  • Added note about requiring both windows to be open
  • Highlighted that live preview is local-only with upgrade path for shareable previews
  • Changed authentication limitation from Note to Warning for better visibility

Generated from live preview poc @dks333


Note

Updates editor/live-preview.mdx to reflect the new cross-window live preview.

  • Clarifies that live preview opens in a separate browser window, is local-only, and requires both editor and preview windows open with automatic syncing
  • Updates comparison table Access to "Separate window (local only)" and adds upgrade path link for shareable preview deployments
  • Changes toolbar button icon reference to media-play and updates instructions; adds note about auto-updating preview window
  • Elevates authentication limitation to a Warning and polishes copy for real-time updates
