Stytch Component Playground: a live UI builder for your next login flow

Nobody wants to build another login page by hand. Introducing the Component Playground—an interactive builder baked into our docs that lets you theme, preview, and copy production-ready UI in minutes. Another project our team built during the hackathon built to make using Stytch even better.

Why the Component Playground?

Step one in any auth build or migration is always the same: get a branded login screen live.

But figuring out how every component will look together can be difficult when using auth vendors. It’s important to consider questions like: Will our colors and styles map cleanly in the pre-built UI or do I need something more custom? How will it look to pair OAuth with Email Magic Links? What will the final config even look like?.

The new Stytch Component Playground removes that friction with a live canvas directly in your browser where you can:

  1. Preview a real login form, complete with email magic links, OAuth, SSO, Passwords, etc.
  2. Customize font, logo, border radius, and every color token with instant visual feedback

Copy & paste the exact config and styles JSON you just built—ready for @stytch/react or vanilla JS

Stytch Component Playground

Today, the Component Playground covers the most essential parts of your login screen. You can mix and match auth factors—Google, Microsoft, GitHub, Slack, Email Magic Links, SSO, or Passwords—and watch the layout re-flow in real time.

Then fine-tune the look and feel to match your brand. Add a URL pointing to your logo, adjust background and border colors, tweak palette shades, or round the corners. Every change is reflected instantly in the preview.

When the UI is exactly how you want it, copy the custom config and styles JSON and paste it straight into your code.

What’s Next?

As we continue to refine the Component Playground, we’re excited to see how it helps you build faster with Stytch. We’ll be adding more components and customization options based on your feedback, so contact us with your ideas.
