Announcing our new engineering blog. And why we won't outright ban AI from our writing process. www.sanity.io/engineering/...

I made this little hobby site (bilsjekk.ai) back in March 2025 to test out some of the agent frameworks it's been rather dormant since then. I have just been testing some Sanity features in there ever now and then. Suddenly is 600 users a day when I checked back in. No idea what happened 🤷‍♂️

Couldn't sleep so I built Game of Life in @sanity.io's Portable Text Editor 👉 portable-text-of-life.vercel.app 🧑‍💻 github.com/portabletext...

Wrote an article on Medium about a thought process that I have been using for the past 18 months! medium.com/@eoin.falcon...

Wrote something on Medium for the first time in a long time! 😊 medium.com/@eoin.falcon...

So cool!!!!!!! @codey.bsky.social massive creds on this work with RC and rolldown-vite! 💨

icing without cake is just icing

The Behavior API for @sanity.io's Portable Text Editor will allow you to configure the editor in ways that where previously not possible. Behaviors can be bundled in Plugins to easily turn them on and off. Here's an example of a simple <OneLinePlugin /> that restricts the editor to one block.

You can now init a new Sanity project with a remote template! Here are some to get you started: $ npm create sanity@latest -- --template sanity-io/sanity-template-astro-clean sanity-io/sanity-template-nextjs-clean sanity-io/sanity-template-sveltekit-clean sanity-io/sanity-template-remix-clean

Yaaayy!! 🎉

Today, I released the library we use to drive >200 tests using Gherkin to make sure @sanity.io's Portable Text Editor behaves correctly. Pkg: www.npmjs.com/package/race... Src: github.com/portabletext... PTE Gherkin spec: github.com/portabletext... PTE Gherkin test suite: github.com/portabletext...

@hamburger.cloud you are in my thoughts every day as I leave the office.

Medieval babies are just the best.

Spotted a wild falcon whilst driving in Ireland over the weekend! 🪶🪶

My favourite people just shipped all the cool things they are doing!!! 🥹🥹🥹 Go check it out, if not for the product, for the tech, because there is an awful lot of novel tech 🤩

Open source software is crucial to the success of Sanity, so it makes sense to give back to great projects that we and our community use every day. That's why we joined the @opensourcepledge.com with a $112k donation to great projects and maintainers. 🫶 www.sanity.io/blog/sanity-...

Winter Release coming Nov 19th! One thing we wrestled with: how do you make page building feel natural while keeping content structured? Drop your worst page building horror stories below! 😱

The Sanity Winter Release is coming up on November 19th! On November 21st, the engineers behind the new features joins @kapehe.bsky.social and @knut.fyi for a special Developer Deep Dive. What are you hoping to see? 🔮 www.sanity.io/events/devel...

"Testing is documenting" Especially if your tests are written in a human-readable language. I'm currently working on @sanity.io's text editor, and here Gherkin is working really well for documenting and keeping all the different behaviours in check. github.com/portabletext...
