Easing into the App Router with the Sanity Toolkit for Next.js
Blog post from Sanity
The recent enhancements to Sanity's Next.js toolkit, in collaboration with Vercel, aim to improve the performance and flexibility of web development by integrating the App Router and React Server Components. These upgrades allow developers to manage caching strategies more effectively, distinguishing between static and dynamic data on a component level, which reduces the need for entire page reloads. This is particularly beneficial in delivering fast, dynamic web experiences that engage users without compromising on speed. Sanity's structured content system, combined with features like revalidation tags and GROQ-powered webhooks, simplifies content updates and ensures that changes are quickly reflected without excessive API calls. These improvements offer developers a streamlined workflow with reduced maintenance, enabling them to focus more on building rich and interactive websites that stand out in a competitive digital landscape.
