This starter is a statically generated blog that uses Next.js for the frontend and Sanity to handle its content. It comes with a native Sanity Studio that offers features like real-time collaboration, instant side-by-side content previews, and intuitive editing.
The Studio connects to Sanity Content Lake, which gives you hosted content APIs with a flexible query language, on-demand image transformations, powerful patching, and more. You can use this starter to kick-start a blog or learn these technologies.
Note
This starter uses the
/pagesdirectory for Next.js routing.The template will be migrated to the currently experimental /app directory when Vercel announce that it is production ready.
