@Richr@mastodon.social looks a lot like Sanity (which, once I got past the learning curve, is decent).

@Richr@mastodon.social We used it for a project at my last job to serve as a back end to a front end I was creating. I didn’t work in it directly, but my colleagues who did were happy with it. The fact that it uses Next.js is a point in its favor; that mitigates a fair amount of the issues I have with React by rendering on the server. I actually paired it with a front end built with Remix, which works similarly to Next.js in rendering on the server and would up with something that worked like a normal site.

@Richr@mastodon.social I'm not a React fan at all and thats why I was really sceptic at first. But I used it now for a couple of projects and especially if you just use it as a backend its pretty neat. The whole handling of collections with a really good TypeScript integration makes it a joy to use. I think the whole idea about integrating a CMS like that so deeply into a frontend meta framework makes it pretty special and suitable also for small projects as a Wordpress alternative.
