To create a new carousel, call the `createDesign` method and provide a callback function to handle the exported data: ```typescript editor.createDesign((data: ExportData) => { console.log(data); // Save or display the carousel data as needed }); ``` To edit an existing carousel, use the `editDesign` method and provide the carousel ID along with a callback function: ```typescript editor.editDesign('your-carousel-id', (data: ExportData) => { console.log(data); // Update the existing carousel with the new data }); ``` ### Exported data The exported data includes the carousel ID, name, size, PDF file, and an array of image files. You can use this data to save the carousel, display it in your application, or perform any other necessary operations. ```typescript interface ExportData { id: string; // Unique identifier for the carousel name: string; // Name of the carousel size: string; // Size of the carousel in aspect ratio (e.g., "16:9") pdf: Blob; // PDF file of the carousel images: Blob[]; // Array of image files for the carousel } ``` ## Example Here's a complete example of how you can integrate PostNitro Embed into a Next.js/React application: ```tsx 'use client' import { createEditor, ExportData } from "@postnitro/embed"; export default function Example() { const editor = createEditor({ apiKey: "your-api-key", }); const handleCreateCarousel = () => { editor.createDesign((data: ExportData) => { console.log("New carousel created:", data); // Save or display the carousel data as needed }); }; const handleEditCarousel = () => { const carouselId = "your-carousel-id"; editor.editDesign(carouselId, (data: ExportData) => { console.log("Carousel edited:", data); // Update the existing carousel with the new data }); }; return ( ); } ``` ## Conclusion Integrating PostNitro (https://postnitro.ai) Embed into your web application empowers users to create visually stunning carousels effortlessly.
