When do you need a DAM (Digital Asset Manager)?

At first glance, digital asset management may seem trivial, but fast-growing companies often hit hurdles sharing and collaborating on brand assets, especially for web content that is regularly updated. Makeswift offers two ways to manage these digital assets — our built-in files manager or an integrated, external DAM (Digital Asset Manager) like Bynder.

Files search

You can now quickly find files and folders using the new search tab in the files manager. When opening the files manager from the builder’s left sidebar, you’ll be immediately taken to the files search and shown the most recently uploaded files. You’ll then be able to search for files and folders within your site and workspace files.

Improved files management and sorting

The files manager has received a small facelift with lots of new improvements added to make organizing your files much easier.

Next.js App Router support

You can now render Makeswift pages in App Router! Upgrade to the latest version of Makeswift using `npm upgrade @makeswift/runtime@latest` to start using Makeswift with App Router today.

Site publishing and history

We recently released a major update to the publishing workflow in Makeswift. Instead of publishing one page at a time, you can now make bulk edits to your site go live in a single publish. With the new publish dialog, you can easily select which pages you want to publish, all from one place.
