Click, edit, done: Introducing Visual Editing

Vercel and Sanity have launched Visual Editing, a feature designed to streamline content editing workflows by allowing users to click on content blocks within a Vercel preview deployment and directly access the corresponding content in Sanity Studio. This capability addresses the common tradeoff in headless CMS architectures, where editors often face less intuitive editing experiences compared to traditional monolithic CMSes. Visual Editing simplifies the process by enabling direct navigation to content locations, thereby enhancing efficiency without requiring changes to front-end code. This feature is part of Sanity's composable content solution, which offers a flexible, API-centric framework that supports content reuse across multiple digital experiences. By leveraging Vercel’s incremental static regeneration, updates are reflected quickly across sites, ensuring a seamless and efficient content management process.
