Streaming edits into iframe
What actually works when you want AI output to feel live inside a visual editor.
- AI
- Infra
- Experiment
Problem
Streaming structured output directly into a live iframe breaks easily.
What Worked Better
Buffering output, validating partial structure, and applying incremental patches made updates feel live without corrupting the UI state.
Current Rule
Treat streamed output as untrusted until it passes structure checks. Smooth UX comes from predictable partial commits, not raw token speed.
