How to embed Apostrophe in-context editing into existing website?

Hi Apostrophe,

I have a simple question: is it possible to embed Apostrophe in-context editing into existing website’s div or paragraph blocks?

Hi galgussev,

It isn’t really part of Apostrophe’s main use case, which is creating a complete dynamic website.

But, that doesn’t mean you could never pull it off. Questions to ask yourself include, where is the rest of the website getting its content from? What’s going to talk to Apostrophe on the server side?

Generally how-to questions belong on Stack Overflow, but I can see how this is also a more general “is this even a thing we do” question that’s interesting to get into here.

thank you, boutell, for your answer
