+## Next.js
+
+The React kit, `@helpai/elements/react`, is server-render safe and already marked `'use client'`, so it drops straight
+into a layout. Nothing touches the page until it runs in the browser.
+
+**App Router** (13+):
+
+```tsx
+// app/layout.tsx
+import { HelpAI } from '@helpai/elements/react';
+
+export default function RootLayout({ children }: { children: React.ReactNode }) {
+  return (
+    <html lang='en'>
+      <body>
+        {children}
+        <HelpAI publicKey={process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_HELPAI_KEY!} aiAgentDeploymentId={process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_HELPAI_DEPLOYMENT_ID!} theme='host' />
+      </body>
+    </html>
+  );
+}
+```
+
+```bash
+# .env.local
+NEXT_PUBLIC_HELPAI_KEY=agent_pk_abc123...
+NEXT_PUBLIC_HELPAI_DEPLOYMENT_ID=01900000-0000-7000-8000-000000000000
+```
+
+A server component can only pass serializable props, so callbacks (`onOpen`, `onMessage`, …) go on a `<HelpAI />`
+rendered from a `'use client'` component of your own. `useHelpAI()` (below) works in any client component.
+
+**Pages Router**: render `<HelpAI />` in `pages/_app.tsx` the same way; no `dynamic(..., { ssr: false })` needed.
+
+---
+
+## React
+
+The React kit (React 18+) mounts the widget with `<HelpAI />` and drives it from any component with `useHelpAI()`:
+
+```tsx
+import { HelpAI, useHelpAI } from '@helpai/elements/react';
+
+export function Root() {
+  return (
+    <>
+      <main>{/* your app */}</main>
+      <HelpAI publicKey={import.meta.env.VITE_HELPAI_KEY} aiAgentDeploymentId={import.meta.env.VITE_HELPAI_DEPLOYMENT_ID} theme='host' />
+    </>
+  );
+}
+
+function PricingHelp() {
+  const { ask, open, state } = useHelpAI();
+  return (
+    <>
+      <button onClick={() => ask('Which plan fits a team of 10?')}>Ask about plans</button>
+      <button onClick={() => open({ to: 'help' })}>Help center {state.unread > 0 && `(${state.unread})`}</button>
+    </>
+  );
+}
+```
+
+- **`<HelpAI {...options} />`** takes every [widget option](./configuration.md) as a prop; `aiAgentDeploymentId` is
+  required. It renders nothing itself: the widget mounts once the page is in the browser, a prop change re-configures
+  the live widget without a remount, and unmounting removes it. Callback props (`onOpen`, `onMessage`, …) can be new
+  functions on every render; the widget always calls the latest one.
+- **`useHelpAI(widgetId?)`** returns `{ state, ask, open, close, reset }`. `state` is
+  [`{ open, ready, unread, conversationId? }`](./api-reference.md#state-and-ready) and re-renders the component when it changes;
+  the server render sees the initial state. The commands are stable across renders and do nothing until the widget
+  has mounted (`state.ready`). `ask(text)` fills the composer; `ask(text, { send: true })` sends it. Call `reset()`
+  when your user logs out.
+- **One import path.** The kit carries the whole widget API (`getInstance`, `hook`, the types), so import everything
+  from `@helpai/elements/react`; the package's other entries are separate copies with their own widgets.
+- **Two widgets** on one page: give each `<HelpAI widgetId='support' … />` and read it with `useHelpAI('support')`.
+
+The kit bundles the widget and imports only React from your app, so you don't need Preact installed.
+
+### React 19 — use the web component directly
+
+React 19+ supports custom elements natively:
+
+```tsx
+// No JS bundle import needed — add a <script> tag or use the web-component sub-entry
+import '@helpai/elements/web-component';
+
+function Chat() {
+  return <web-ai-chat public-key={import.meta.env.VITE_HELPAI_KEY} ai-agent-deployment-id={import.meta.env.VITE_HELPAI_DEPLOYMENT_ID} theme='auto' />;
+}
+```
+
+### TypeScript typings
+
+`import type {} from '@helpai/elements/jsx/react';` once (in your entry file or a `.d.ts`) registers `<web-ai-chat>`
+in React 19's JSX: every attribute the element reads autocompletes, `ai-agent-deployment-id` is required, and a `ref`
+is the typed element with `ask`, `open`, `state`, `ready` and `reset`. Vue and Svelte have `@helpai/elements/jsx/vue`
+and `@helpai/elements/jsx/svelte` ([JSX typings](./api-reference.md#jsx-typings)).
+
+```tsx
+import { useRef } from 'react';
+
+import type {} from '@helpai/elements/jsx/react';
+
+function Chat() {
+  const chat = useRef<HTMLElementTagNameMap['web-ai-chat']>(null);
+  return (
+    <>
+      <button onClick={() => chat.current?.ask('Which plan fits a team of 10?')}>Ask about plans</button>
+      <web-ai-chat ref={chat} public-key='agent_pk_...' ai-agent-deployment-id='...' theme='host' />
+    </>
+  );
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## Vue 3
+
+Composition API:
+
+```vue
+<!-- components/Chat.vue -->
+<script setup lang="ts">
+import { onMounted, onBeforeUnmount } from 'vue';
+import { init, type ChatWidgetInstance } from '@helpai/elements';
+
+let instance: ChatWidgetInstance | null = null;
+
+onMounted(() => {
+  instance = init({
+    publicKey: import.meta.env.VITE_HELPAI_KEY,
+    aiAgentDeploymentId: import.meta.env.VITE_HELPAI_DEPLOYMENT_ID,
+  });
+});
+
+onBeforeUnmount(() => {
+  instance?.destroy();
+});
+</script>
+
+<template>
+  <!-- Nothing to render — the widget mounts its own DOM -->
+</template>
+```
+
+```vue
+<!-- App.vue -->
+<script setup lang="ts">
+import Chat from './components/Chat.vue';
+</script>
+
+<template>
+  <main>
+    <!-- your app -->
+  </main>
+  <Chat />
+</template>
+```
+
+### Web component approach
+
+Vue 3 supports custom elements natively. Register the web-component
+sub-entry, then use the tag:
+
+```ts
+// main.ts
+import { createApp } from 'vue';
+import '@helpai/elements/web-component';
+
+import App from './App.vue';
+
+const app = createApp(App);
+// Tell Vue to treat `web-ai-chat` as a custom element (not a Vue component)
+app.config.compilerOptions.isCustomElement = (tag) => tag === 'web-ai-chat';
+app.mount('#app');
+```
+
+```vue
+<template>
+  <web-ai-chat public-key="agent_pk_..." ai-agent-deployment-id="01900000-0000-7000-8000-000000000000" theme="auto" />
+</template>
+```
+
+---
+
+## Nuxt 3
+
+```ts
+// plugins/web-ai-chat.client.ts
+import { init } from '@helpai/elements';
+
+export default defineNuxtPlugin((nuxtApp) => {
+  const chat = init({
+    publicKey: useRuntimeConfig().public.helpaiKey,
+    aiAgentDeploymentId: useRuntimeConfig().public.helpaiDeploymentId,
+  });
+
+  nuxtApp.hook('app:beforeMount', () => {
+    // Widget already mounted by init(). This hook is just a reference.
+  });
+
+  // Clean up on app tear-down (rarely triggered in SPA navigation)
+  nuxtApp.hook('app:suspense:resolve', () => {
+    // No-op — widget stays across navigations
+  });
+
+  return {
+    provide: {
+      chat,
+    },
+  };
+});
+```
+
+```ts
+// nuxt.config.ts
+export default defineNuxtConfig({
+  runtimeConfig: {
+    public: {
+      helpaiKey: process.env.NUXT_PUBLIC_HELPAI_KEY,
+      helpaiDeploymentId: process.env.NUXT_PUBLIC_HELPAI_DEPLOYMENT_ID,
+    },
+  },
+});
+```
+
+Note the `.client.ts` suffix — ensures the plugin only runs in the
+browser.
+
+---
+
+## Svelte / SvelteKit
+
+**SvelteKit**:
+
+```svelte
+<!-- src/routes/+layout.svelte -->
+<script lang="ts">
+  import { onMount, onDestroy } from 'svelte';
+  import { browser } from '$app/environment';
+  import { init, type ChatWidgetInstance } from '@helpai/elements';
+  import { PUBLIC_HELPAI_DEPLOYMENT_ID, PUBLIC_HELPAI_KEY } from '$env/static/public';
+
+  let instance: ChatWidgetInstance | null = null;
+
+  onMount(() => {
+    if (!browser) return;
+    instance = init({ publicKey: PUBLIC_HELPAI_KEY, aiAgentDeploymentId: PUBLIC_HELPAI_DEPLOYMENT_ID });
+  });
+
+  onDestroy(() => {
+    instance?.destroy();
+  });
+</script>
+
+<slot />
+```
+
+**Plain Svelte** (no SvelteKit):
+
+```svelte
+<!-- App.svelte -->
+<script lang="ts">
+  import { onMount, onDestroy } from 'svelte';
+  import { init, type ChatWidgetInstance } from '@helpai/elements';
+
+  let instance: ChatWidgetInstance | null = null;
+
+  onMount(() => {
+    instance = init({ publicKey: import.meta.env.VITE_HELPAI_KEY, aiAgentDeploymentId: import.meta.env.VITE_HELPAI_DEPLOYMENT_ID });
+  });
+
+  onDestroy(() => {
+    instance?.destroy();
+  });
+</script>
+
+<main>
+  <!-- your app -->
+</main>
+```
+
+### Web component in Svelte
+
+Svelte handles custom elements natively:
+
+```svelte
+<script lang="ts">
+  import '@helpai/elements/web-component';
+</script>
+
+<web-ai-chat public-key="agent_pk_..." ai-agent-deployment-id="01900000-0000-7000-8000-000000000000" theme="auto" />
+```
+
+---
+
+## Astro
+
+Astro is SSR-first; wrap the widget in a client directive:
+
+```astro
+---
+// src/components/Chat.astro
+const publicKey = import.meta.env.PUBLIC_HELPAI_KEY;
+const aiAgentDeploymentId = import.meta.env.PUBLIC_HELPAI_DEPLOYMENT_ID;
+---
+
+<script define:vars={{ publicKey, aiAgentDeploymentId }}>
+  import('@helpai/elements').then(({ init }) => {
+    init({ publicKey, aiAgentDeploymentId });
+  });
+</script>
+```
+
+```astro
+---
+// src/layouts/Layout.astro
+import Chat from '../components/Chat.astro';
+---
+<html>
+  <body>
+    <slot />
+    <Chat />
+  </body>
+</html>
+```
+
+Or use the web component (even simpler — no JS needed):
+
+```astro
+---
+import '@helpai/elements/web-component';
+---
+
+<web-ai-chat public-key={Astro.env.PUBLIC_HELPAI_KEY} ai-agent-deployment-id={Astro.env.PUBLIC_HELPAI_DEPLOYMENT_ID} />
+```
+
+---
+
+## Remix
+
+Remix (and React Router 7) render on the server, which the [React kit](#react) handles: pass the keys from the loader.
+
+```tsx
+// app/root.tsx
+import { HelpAI } from '@helpai/elements/react';
+import { Outlet, useLoaderData } from '@remix-run/react';
+
+export async function loader() {
+  return {
+    helpaiKey: process.env.HELPAI_PUBLIC_KEY ?? '',
+    helpaiDeploymentId: process.env.HELPAI_DEPLOYMENT_ID ?? '',
+  };
+}
+
+export default function App() {
+  const { helpaiKey, helpaiDeploymentId } = useLoaderData<typeof loader>();
+
+  return (
+    <html>
+      <body>
+        <Outlet />
+        {helpaiKey && helpaiDeploymentId && <HelpAI publicKey={helpaiKey} aiAgentDeploymentId={helpaiDeploymentId} />}
+      </body>
+    </html>
+  );
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## SolidJS
+
+```tsx
+import { init, type ChatWidgetInstance } from '@helpai/elements';
+import { onMount, onCleanup } from 'solid-js';
+
+export function Chat() {
+  let instance: ChatWidgetInstance | null = null;
+
+  onMount(() => {
+    instance = init({ publicKey: import.meta.env.VITE_HELPAI_KEY, aiAgentDeploymentId: import.meta.env.VITE_HELPAI_DEPLOYMENT_ID });
+  });
+
+  onCleanup(() => {
+    instance?.destroy();
+  });
+
+  return null;
+}
+```
+
+Solid also supports custom elements natively:
+
+```tsx
+import '@helpai/elements/web-component';
+
+export default function App() {
+  return <web-ai-chat public-key='agent_pk_...' ai-agent-deployment-id='01900000-0000-7000-8000-000000000000' />;
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## Angular
+
+Angular needs `CUSTOM_ELEMENTS_SCHEMA` to accept the custom tag:
+
+```ts
+// src/app/app.module.ts
+import { NgModule, CUSTOM_ELEMENTS_SCHEMA } from '@angular/core';
+import '@helpai/elements/web-component';
+
+@NgModule({
+  // ...
+  schemas: [CUSTOM_ELEMENTS_SCHEMA],
+})
+export class AppModule {}
+```
+
+```html
+<!-- app.component.html -->
+<web-ai-chat public-key="agent_pk_..." ai-agent-deployment-id="01900000-0000-7000-8000-000000000000" theme="auto"></web-ai-chat>
+```
+
+For programmatic control:
+
+```ts
+// chat.service.ts
+import { Injectable } from '@angular/core';
+import { init, type ChatWidgetInstance } from '@helpai/elements';
+
+import { environment } from '../environments/environment';
+
+@Injectable({ providedIn: 'root' })
+export class ChatService {
+  private instance: ChatWidgetInstance | null = null;
+
+  mount() {
+    if (!this.instance) {
+      this.instance = init({ publicKey: environment.helpaiKey, aiAgentDeploymentId: environment.helpaiDeploymentId });
+    }
+  }
+
+  destroy() {
+    this.instance?.destroy();
+    this.instance = null;
+  }
+
+  open() {
+    this.instance?.open();
+  }
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## WordPress
+
+Add the snippet via the Theme Header/Footer plugin OR directly in
+your theme's `header.php`:
+
+```html
+<!-- Before </head> -->
+<script src="https://cdn.help.ai/sdk/js/elements/latest/elements.js" data-public-key="agent_pk_abc123..." data-ai-agent-deployment-id="01900000-0000-7000-8000-000000000000" defer></script>
+```
+
+### Via a plugin
+
+Any "Insert Headers and Footers" plugin works:
+
+1. Install the plugin (e.g., "Insert Headers and Footers" by WPBeginner).
+2. Settings → Insert Headers and Footers.
+3. Paste the script tag into the "Scripts in Header" box.
+4. Save.
+
+### Via functions.php
+
+```php
+<?php
+// Add to your theme's functions.php
+function helpai_enqueue_chat() {
+  ?>
+  <script
+    src="https://cdn.help.ai/sdk/js/elements/latest/elements.js"
+    data-public-key="agent_pk_abc123..."
+    data-ai-agent-deployment-id="01900000-0000-7000-8000-000000000000"
+    defer
+  ></script>
+  <?php
+}
+add_action('wp_head', 'helpai_enqueue_chat');
+```
+
+### Personalization for logged-in users
+
+```php
+<?php
+function helpai_enqueue_chat_personalized() {
+  $user = wp_get_current_user();
+  $attrs = 'data-public-key="agent_pk_..." data-ai-agent-deployment-id="01900000-0000-7000-8000-000000000000"';
+  if ($user->ID) {
+    $attrs .= ' data-user-id="' . esc_attr($user->ID) . '"';
+    $attrs .= ' data-user-email="' . esc_attr($user->user_email) . '"';
+    $attrs .= ' data-user-name="' . esc_attr($user->display_name) . '"';
+    $attrs .= ' data-user-context=\'' . esc_attr(json_encode(array("plan" => "pro"))) . '\'';
+  }
+  ?>
+  <script src="https://cdn.help.ai/sdk/js/elements/latest/elements.js" <?php echo $attrs; ?> defer></script>
+  <?php
+}
+add_action('wp_head', 'helpai_enqueue_chat_personalized');
+```
+
+> Note: `data-user-*` / `data-page-*` are host-asserted context for the
+> AI, never an auth credential — the browser deployment is selected by
+> `data-public-key` + `data-ai-agent-deployment-id`. Explicit
+> scalar attributes win over keys in the `data-user-context` /
+> `data-page-context` JSON.
+
+---
+
+## Shopify
+
+Shopify has a "custom pixels" and "additional scripts" workflow.
+Easiest path:
+
+1. In your admin: **Online Store → Themes → Edit code**.
+2. Open `theme.liquid`.
+3. Paste before `</head>`:
+
+```html
+<script src="https://cdn.help.ai/sdk/js/elements/latest/elements.js" data-public-key="agent_pk_..." data-ai-agent-deployment-id="01900000-0000-7000-8000-000000000000" defer></script>
+```
+
+### With Shopify customer data
+
+```html
+{% if customer %}
+<script
+  src="https://cdn.help.ai/sdk/js/elements/latest/elements.js"
+  data-public-key="agent_pk_..."
+  data-ai-agent-deployment-id="01900000-0000-7000-8000-000000000000"
+  data-user-id="{{ customer.id }}"
+  data-user-email="{{ customer.email }}"
+  data-user-name="{{ customer.first_name }} {{ customer.last_name }}"
+  data-page-area="orders"
+  defer
+></script>
+{% else %}
+<script src="https://cdn.help.ai/sdk/js/elements/latest/elements.js" data-public-key="agent_pk_..." data-ai-agent-deployment-id="01900000-0000-7000-8000-000000000000" defer></script>
+{% endif %}
+```
+
+---
+
+## Webflow
+
+Webflow lets you add site-wide custom code:
+
+1. Site settings → **Custom code → Head code**.
+2. Paste:
+
+```html
+<script src="https://cdn.help.ai/sdk/js/elements/latest/elements.js" data-public-key="agent_pk_..." data-ai-agent-deployment-id="01900000-0000-7000-8000-000000000000" defer></script>
+```
+
+3. Save + publish.
+
+Page-specific customization: open the page → **Page settings →
+Inside `<head>` tag** and paste a page-specific snippet.
+
+---
+
+## Squarespace / Wix
+
+**Squarespace:**
+
+1. Settings → **Advanced → Code Injection**.
+2. Paste the script tag into the **Header** section.
+
+**Wix:**
+
+1. Settings → **Custom Code**.
+2. Add new snippet.
+3. Paste + choose "All pages" + "Head" placement.
+
+---
+
+## Framework-agnostic troubleshooting
+
+**The widget doesn't appear in SSR previews** — that's expected. The
+widget is client-only. It appears after hydration / mount.
+
+**The widget flashes open then closes on SPA navigation** — you're
+probably calling `destroy()` then `init()` on every route change. Use
+`init()` alone — it's idempotent. If there's an existing instance at
+the same `widgetId`, it merges the new options in.
+
+**Hot module replacement breaks the widget** — Next.js / Vite HMR
+sometimes mounts duplicate instances. Always pair your `useEffect` /
+`onMounted` with a cleanup that calls `destroy()`.
+
+**CSP blocks the widget** — the widget inlines styles inside a shadow
+root (requires `style-src 'unsafe-inline'` or a nonce pattern). See
+[Security & privacy § CSP](./security-privacy.md#content-security-policy).
+
+More: [Troubleshooting](./troubleshooting.md).
