With its all-code configuration, AI tools make Sanity a perfect choice as a content backend, and developers of varying levels of experience—including those with none at all—greatly benefit from AI tooling. Do it the right way for the best results, take on more ambitious projects, lower the barrier to entry and create happier content authors.
1: The present future of Sanity development
