"Here’s how I created my first blog using Next.js, Sanity.io for the headless CMS, Tailwind CSS, and ShadCN UI for styling."

Introduction

Building a blog has always been on my to-do list. As someone new to web development, I wanted to create a project that helped me explore modern tools like Next.js, Sanity.io, Tailwind CSS, and ShadCN UI. The goal was to build something functional and visually appealing while learning the basics of these technologies.

Tools and Technologies Used

Here’s a quick overview of the technologies I used and why I chose them: Next.js: A React framework that offers server-side rendering, file-based routing, and SEO optimization. Sanity.io: A headless CMS that makes managing content simple and flexible. Tailwind CSS: A utility-first CSS framework for rapid and custom styling. ShadCN UI: Pre-built, customizable components to speed up the design process.
