Recap on Sanity News

What has Sanity shared or launched since the last digest we published in January of 2021?

• We launched the first season of the #i-made-this show where we brought on people from the Sanity Exchange and they demoed their projects! Some of the projects we looked at are:
  • Mmhmm shared by Annie Pennell, a developer at All Turtles
  • OG Image generator asset source shared by Henrique Doro
• We grew as a company and hired a bunch of awesome people!
• We started a new beginner's channel in Sanity's Slack: #getting-started
• We held an open house where we had people from Eleventy, Netlify, and more on stage with us
• And we announced the Sanity Content Lake!

Let's now take a look at what the community has shared in the Sanity Exchange!

Figma x2

Figma can be found twice in the project showcase section of the Sanity Exchange. Both projects were shared by Corey Ward:

• At the end of April, Figma held a global design conference called Config. It was free to attend and the lineup of speakers was "drawn" up nicely. They had talks from Connie Yang and Tayler Aitken about their design process and what Stripe has been up to lately to an insider's look at Uber's design system given by Dylan Babbs. But did you know that the conference's website was powered by Sanity? All those amazing stats on the speakers were so structured!
• Soon after that was shared by Corey, the full website and blog for Figma were added to the Projects page. Powering the website that helps teams design products for designs across the web is an honor. We'll keep the content structured, and you all keep making those beautiful websites.

Check out Corey Ward's other Projects:

• WorldQuant University - shared with Fannie Gunton
• Takeout Tracker - shared with Fannie Gunton (link to interview)
• Secondmind

Slick's Slices by Wes Bos

Last year. the tech world was blessed with the brilliant course, Master Gatsby by Wes Bos. This course taught people all the core concepts of Gatsby and covers a number of things, including:

• Progressive images
• Serverless functions
• Reusable components
• Dynamic forms
• and pulling data from Sanity

Head on over to Slick's Slices project page where you'll find screenshots of what you'll build in the course, details about the app, and the full GitHub repo for the project.

GROQ of Thrones

The best way to learn something is to practice, practice, practice.

We have groq.dev where you can use preset data and run any GROQ query on it to see what it would return. Another way to practice is by using the Vision plugin within your Studio to query your own Content Lake.

The newest way is community created and it has a pretty cool theme.

As shared by Abraham A. Agung, we get the interactive way to learn GROQ using characters based on Game of Thrones called very cleverly: GROQ of Thrones. There are 10 lessons, can you GROQ all of them?

Learn GROQ in 45 minutes

Another honorable mention when getting started with GROQ is the 45-minute walk-through with Henrique Doro. This course takes you through 10 lessons where you'll learn just about everything you need to know when getting up and running with your GROQ knowledge.

Microsite for Cloudflare Workers

Cloudflare wanted a way to display all of the projects across the web that use Cloudflare's Workers tool. Thus the Cloudflare Workers microsite was created! Using Gatsby and Sanity, they were able to have bandwidth-friendly images, content modeling, and the ability to create custom layouts.

Not only does this site show the benefits of Workers, but the "Built With" section showcases the numerous sites built with them.

As shared on the Projects page by Kristian Freeman, we are honored to be helping showcase these amazing projects.
