Sanity Digest - September '24 Edition

Hey there! Another Sanity digest is here! Below you'll find a whole bunch of cool things built with Sanity, built for Sanity (new features!), and where you can go to learn more about building with Sanity.

Let's dive right in!

Our engineers are a brilliant bunch! I have the honor of interviewing them and receiving exclusive demos of features they build for Sanity.

Then, I took those interviews and gathered them into a nice video for you all to see. I present: Sanity, What's New. September '24!

You'll find a handful of new features:

• TypeGen improvements (& defineQuery) with Sindre
• Auto-updating Studio and multi-deploy Studios with Rico
• Animated image support with Espen
• Copy-Paste Update with Fred

You won't find these demos anywhere else...enjoy!

The team at Tailwind CSS has released their latest pixel-perfect Next.js template, Radiant. It's feature-packed with best-in-class design, coding patterns and layouts as standard. But we're especially excited it contains a preconfigured Sanity Studio with blog template schema, along with sample data ready to import. It's available now as part of their Tailwind UI subscription and can be used with a new free Sanity project.

Once you have access to the template, Simeon shows you how to integrate Visual Editing for interactive live preview.

Y'all, can I just say something? Seeing the things you are building and creating with code is absolutely thrilling! And then to see that Sanity is a part of that magic? AMAZING!

We are so grateful to be in those projects. Thank you for allowing us to help you create.

I've got to share some of those projects with you! Check them out below.

Let us worry about managing your content; you just worry about taking care of your guests.

Max Böck and the Codista team built this clean, beautiful website. On it, you can book a room or an experience and find all the contact details for this wonderfully located hotel.

The Codista team incorporated multi-language support, flexible content editing with custom content, and lightning-fast performance.

Max! Codista team! Amazing contribution!

Find all the details on the project, built with Sanity and Eleventy!

You may have recently heard the hype around Cursor, an AI code editor. You may have even seen Knut's post on building a fully working custom input component with Cursor. (You heard that right! Go check it out!!)

Inspired by the post from Knut, the team at Roboto Studio shared a handy AI prompt that could help you with your Sanity + Cursor experience.

When working with AI, you have to be quite explicit with your instructions. Communicate effectively! Use this handy prompt to standardize Sanity schema writing and more!

Awesome work, Roboto Studio team. Check out the Cursor prompt!

Share your Sanity powered projects, code snippets, and more to the Sanity Exchange. Or need inspiration? The Exchange has loads of cool ideas and snippets.
