This Next.js project integrates Prismic as its CMS, allowing for dynamic content creation and management. To set up the project, users must first sign up for a Prismic account, create a new repository, and configure their access token. They then need to set up Netlify, linking it to their Prismic account via API keys. Next, they can build a simple demo site using Prismic's custom types and data models, and connect it to their Netlify project. The project uses Next.js' getStaticProps function to fetch posts from Prismic at build time, reducing the need for manual rebuilding of the site when new content is added.
