Welcome to the new Stepio blog! We've recently transitioned our architecture to use a blazing-fast local JSON-based CMS built directly into our Next.js App Router setup.
Why JSON?
By keeping our data as static JSON files in the repository:
- Lightning Fast Builds: We can use
generateStaticParamsto pre-render every single blog page during deployment. - Zero Database Overhead: We don't need to ping external databases for reading blog posts. All content is instantly available.
- Easy Version Control: Writers and developers can review blog changes via GitHub Pull Requests.
The Future
We are excited to bring you more technical deep-dives, product updates, and tutorials using this new platform. Stay tuned!
