### Rendering Excalidraw only on client
### Next.js
Since _Excalidraw_ doesn't support server side rendering, you should render the component once the host is `mounted`.
Here are two ways on how you can render **Excalidraw** on **Next.js**.
1. Importing Excalidraw once **client** is rendered.
```jsx showLineNumbers
import { useState, useEffect } from "react";
export default function App() {
const [Excalidraw, setExcalidraw] = useState(null);
useEffect(() => {
import("@excalidraw/excalidraw").then((comp) =>
setExcalidraw(comp.Excalidraw),
);
}, []);
return <>{Excalidraw && <Excalidraw />}</>;
}
```
Here is a working [demo](https://codesandbox.io/p/sandbox/excalidraw-with-next-5xb3d)
1. Using **Next.js Dynamic** import [Recommended].
2. Using **Next.js Dynamic** import.
Since Excalidraw doesn't server side rendering so you can also use `dynamic import` to render by setting `ssr` to `false`. However one drawback is the `Refs` don't work with dynamic import in Next.js. We are working on overcoming this and have a better API.

### 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": process.env.IS_PREACT,
},
```
