+# Integration
+
+## Module bundler
+
+If you are using a module bundler (for instance, Webpack), you can import it as an ES6 module as shown below
+
+```js
+import { Excalidraw } from "@excalidraw/excalidraw";
+```
+
+:::info
+
+Throughout the documentation we use live, editable Excalidraw examples like the one shown below.
+
+While we aim for the examples to closely reflect what you'd get if you rendered it yourself, we actually initialize it with some props behind the scenes.
+For example, we're passing a `theme` prop to it based on the current color theme of the docs you're just reading.
+
+:::
+
+```jsx live
+function App() {
+  return (
+    <>
+      <h1 style={{ textAlign: "center" }}>Excalidraw Example</h1>
+      <div style={{ height: "500px" }}>
+        <Excalidraw />
+      </div>
+    </>
+  );
+}
+```
+
+### Next.js
+
+Since Excalidraw doesn't support `server side rendering` so it should be rendered only on `client`. The way to achieve this in next.js is using `next.js dynamic import`.
+
+If you want to only import `Excalidraw` component you can do :point_down:
+
+```jsx showLineNumbers
+import dynamic from "next/dynamic";
+import "@excalidraw/excalidraw/index.css";
+
+const Excalidraw = dynamic(
+  async () => (await import("@excalidraw/excalidraw")).Excalidraw,
+  {
+    ssr: false,
+  },
+);
+export default function App() {
+  return <Excalidraw />;
+}
+```
+
+However the above component only works for named component exports. If you want to import some util / constant or something else apart from Excalidraw, then this approach will not work. Instead you can write a wrapper over Excalidraw and import the wrapper dynamically.
+
+If you are using `pages router` then importing the wrapper dynamically would work, where as if you are using `app router` then you will have to also add `useClient` directive on top of the file in addition to dynamically importing the wrapper as shown :point_down:

+Here is a [source code](https://github.com/excalidraw/excalidraw/tree/master/examples/with-nextjs) for the example with app and pages router. You you can try it out [here](https://excalidraw-package-example-with-nextjs.vercel.app/).
+
+The `types` are available at `@excalidraw/excalidraw/types`, check [CodeSandbox](https://codesandbox.io/p/sandbox/github/excalidraw/excalidraw/tree/master/examples/with-script-in-browser) example for details.
+
+### Preact
+
+Since we support `umd` build ships with `react/jsx-runtime` and `react-dom/client` inlined with the package. This conflicts with `Preact` and hence the build doesn't work directly with `Preact`.
+
+However we have shipped a separate build for `Preact` so if you are using `Preact` you need to set `process.env.IS_PREACT` to `true` to use the `Preact` build.
+
+Once the above `env` variable is set, you will be able to use the package in `Preact` as well.
+
+:::info
+
+When using `vite` or any build tools, you will have to make sure the `process` is accessible as we are accessing `process.env.IS_PREACT` to decide whether to use `preact` build.
+
+Since Vite removes env variables by default, you can update the vite config to ensure its available :point_down:
+
+```
+ define: {
+    "process.env.IS_PREACT": JSON.stringify("true"),
+  },
+```
+:::
+
+## Browser
+
+To use it Excalidraw in a browser directly, use the following setup :point_down:
+
+> **Note**: We rely on import maps to de-duplicate `react`, `react-dom` and `react/jsx-runtime` versions.
