Build an SSG blog with Capri

Using the static site generator Capri, which employs an islands architecture model, developers can easily create and modify static sites, making it ideal for blog development due to the frequent updates and edits required. Capri generates static HTML and CSS by default, requiring hydration via an *island.* suffix for dynamic data and interactivity. The article demonstrates building a blog using React and Capri, focusing on a Rick and Morty theme, with instructions on setting up the site, creating components, and handling routing with React Router. Additionally, it highlights using tools like useSWR and Axios for data fetching from an API, while leveraging Capri's compatibility with various UI frameworks, and its preview mode for local development.
