jamstack.org VS sanity

Docusaurus is a Jamstack SSG (Static Site Generator) mainly intended for documentation and blog websites. It is a Meta Open Source project. Its configuration is done mainly through a JavaScript file called docusaurus.config.js.

Netlify has gained popularity among developers for its ease of use and powerful features. It's a great option for hosting static websites or Jamstack applications.

Jamstack architecture continues to gain popularity as a modern web development approach that focuses on pre-rendered content served from a CDN. Some benefits of Jamstack include better performance, lower cost, and greater scalability. Expect to see growth in Jamstack frameworks like Gatsby, Next.js and Nuxt.js in 2023.

More importantly, Netlify, the creator and stewards of the term Jamstack including it's canonical site, has largely abandoned the term as well, in favor of a "composable web" term that better aligns with their ambitions around becoming a broader enterprise platform including content (with tools like Netlify Connect).

I have been using the hosting environment provided by Netlify for years. I am aware there are several available including Vercelli and Heroku, to name a few, but Netlify was the first I tried and it continues to work well. It links into my Git repos on BitBucket and also offers Functions-as-a-Service (FaaS) for experimentation and small projects. Netlify is also a prime advocate of the JAMStack architecture that is gaining considerable interest.

You should check out JamStack. The premise is that the majority of your site is static content and you can push it out to CDNs that are frequently cheap or free.

Perhaps this is worth checking out and utilizing when I have the time to attempt another JAMstack project. Possibly Eleventy?

For Sanity users:

Sanity is a flexible and customizable headless content management system (CMS) designed to empower developers and content creators to build digital experiences. It has a free plan which includes a hosted, real-time content database which means you don’t have to go through the stress of looking for a backend service to deploy your backend Api.

Sanity.io - Platform for structured content with an open-source editing environment and a real-time hosted data store. Unlimited projects. Unlimited admin users, three non-admin users, two datasets, 500K API CDN requests, 10GB bandwidth, and 5GB assets included for free per project.

The world of web development is constantly evolving, with new tools and technologies emerging to optimize the content creation and management process. One such tool is the Sanity Presentation Tool, a powerful feature within the Sanity.io ecosystem designed to enhance the content editing experience. This tool bridges the gap between content management and frontend presentation, offering a seamless, real-time editing interface that is invaluable for content creators and developers alike.

A headless one is responsible only for data management and providing an API for other applications to show this data. When talking about headless CMS, Strapi or Sanity comes to my mind first, but there are many more.

You could check out Storyblok, they have a nice free tier (most headless CMSes do) so you wouldn't have to pay for hosting. Some other good options are Prismic and Sanity Sanity.

I recently started a project using sanity as a headless cms, and it was pretty easy to set up. Looking at the pricing, you might even be able to stay on the free tier for this site.
