/ Embedded / in-app viewer

Keep technical documents inside the software your users already use.

Rasterex Canvas is an embedded technical-document workspace for teams building their own software products and internal platforms. The document viewer sits inside the host experience, so the application remains the place where users navigate, access documents and complete work.

/ how Rasterex fits

Two browser integration paths, one Canvas workspace.

Use `@rasterex/viewer` in a JavaScript or TypeScript application when you need the documented Viewer lifecycle, commands and events. Use the documented iframe and PostMessage path from any HTML-capable frontend when that integration model fits the application better.

/ who this is for

A fit for applications that own the workflow.

  • Construction, engineering, document-management and facility-management software.
  • Products that need technical-document viewing without making users leave the existing workflow.
  • Teams that want to connect Canvas tools and events to records, tasks, assets or review workflows in their own system.
/ technical proof

Your application remains the system of record.

Your UI

Your application owns navigation, screens, actions and the surrounding user experience.

Your access model

Your application retains identity, authorization and the rules for document access.

Your workflow data

Viewer commands and events can be connected to the business records and workflow your product owns.
