What is sanity?

Sanity is a platform for structured content that comes with an open-source editing environment called Sanity Studio. It allows you to build and manage content with a flexible and customizable interface.

What are sanity's main functionalities?

Content Modeling

Sanity allows you to define your content models using JavaScript objects. This example shows a simple schema for a blog post with a title and body.

const schema = {
  name: 'blogPost',
  type: 'document',
  fields: [
    { name: 'title', type: 'string' },
    { name: 'body', type: 'text' }
  ]
};
export default schema;

Real-time Collaboration

Sanity supports real-time collaboration, allowing multiple users to work on the same document simultaneously. This example demonstrates how to use the `useDocumentOperation` hook to update a document in real-time.

import { useDocumentOperation } from '@sanity/react-hooks';

function MyComponent({ id }) {
  const { patch, commit } = useDocumentOperation(id, 'myDocumentType');

  const handleChange = () => {
    patch.execute([{ set: { title: 'New Title' } }]);
    commit.execute();
  };

  return <button onClick={handleChange}>Change Title</button>;
}

Custom Input Components

Sanity allows you to create custom input components for your content models. This example shows how to create a simple custom input component using React.

import React from 'react';
import { FormField } from '@sanity/base/components';

const MyCustomInput = React.forwardRef((props, ref) => {
  return (
    <FormField label='My Custom Input'>
      <input ref={ref} type='text' {...props} />
    </FormField>
  );
});

export default MyCustomInput;
