🏃‍♂️Running content ops for Sanity Learn 🎙️ Hosting the Code && Content podcast | 🇦🇺 in 🇬🇧
I strongly recommend building your learning platform on a Content Operating System.

Authoring's done in the CMS, then rendered to 3 front ends and now populates 5 different views in this custom app for reporting + reviewing.

Suspense boundaries are for data, not layouts.

Move your data fetching as close to where data will be rendered—deeper into components.

🌓 is really cool with components that do their own data fetching! It's more than a visibility toggle, it maintains state and determines priority too.

Using Activity with Suspenseful data | simeonGriggs.dev
Components hidden by Activity will maintain their state while also unmounting their effects and continue to preload suspenseful data—here's what makes that useful.

yo thanks!
@sanity.io and @mattpocock.com you discussed getting feedback in the recent interview, so I'll give you some. Wonderful conversation! No idea how you'd only have 8 likes on YT for this (Bumped it to 9 now..). Keep it up!

You store your content as files in a repo. My CMS writes PRs. We are not the same.

We're super excited about the direction the vite team is heading here. Hopefully we'll see traction on the initiative to get React Compiler out of the babel pipeline github.com/oxc-project/...

👀 Sanity mentioned
Another real world Rolldown-Vite performance win:

@sanity.io studio’s build time went from:

21.9s to 5.1s (4.29x, w/o React Compiler)
49.6s to 20.0s (2.48x, w/ React Compiler)

🙋‍♂️ Sanity App SDK is my favorite thing we've launched and I've been forming some opinions about how you should use it.

Subtle but very cool part of writing with Canvas is invoking a code block *with a specific syntax highlighter selected* 💅

First look! 👀 Your favorite content backend now has compute with @sanity.io functions. Configured with code. Deployed to Sanity.
May 16, 2025 at 2:00 PM
Oh, your CMS doesn’t have compute? Awkward.

👀 First Look! Building content apps with the @sanity.io App SDK's headless hooks for content fetching and mutations. Optimistic, real-time, and fast.

I've shipped over a dozen plugins and written thousands of words of tutorials on how to customize Sanity Studio.

@sanity.io App SDK is the toolkit I have always wanted.

✨ "Using these coordinates, create a new event, the title and description should use the local language"

Custom content workflow with so little code 🤏 and it's all-@sanity.io-everything under the hood.

🥇 No one's making more ambitious developer content than @jason.energy so I picked his brains about it on Code && Content last week!

🙋‍♀️"Why can't I use my favorite database?" We get asked this a lot so I went straight to the top to find out from @sanity.io CTO @simensvale.bsky.social. Spoiler: the Content Lake is your new favorite database.

New long-form YouTube tutorial on building content-driven apps with just your voice, Cursor and @sanity.io is up now! 👇

Awesome watching folks other than engineers take the course and build with Sanity for the first time. The barrier to entry is so low now.
