Is there a way to setup the new AEM Content Fragment Editor in our local AEM SDK?

The “new” Content Fragment Editor is being promoted as the default editor, but there does not seem to be a way I have found to get this working on our local SDK version of AEM.

Is there a way we can use the new editor on our local instance yet?

No — there is no supported way to run the new Content Fragment Editor UI on the local AEM SDK today.

On SDK / Quickstart you are limited to the classic (Touch UI) Content Fragment editor. The new React/Spectrum‑based editor only runs in the Unified Shell against AEM as a Cloud Service environments (dev, stage, prod, RDE), not against localhost.
