What do you use for an CMS?

Many shops I've built use Storyblok as a CMS, which is personally my favorite for Nuxt. But for my customers sakes I was wondering how to keep the amount of different tools used low. I was experimenting with pages and articles a little bit, but structuring them properly turns out to be difficult. How do you guys handle content management?

@mcschirl Go with whatever is easiest - I've heard Stroyblok is great! I personally use and always recommend Sanity, as this is sort of the current industry standard for headless Shopify stores atm (for both Next and Nuxt). It really is a phenomenal CMS, although there is somewhat of a learning curve. They have a Sanity Connect app for Shopify that allows you to fetch all your store's collections and products and then pair those products on any type of page/template schema you want. I'm actually planning to update the Sanity template that pairs well with this project within the next few weeks.

Is it possible to edit content in the Shopify backend via the Sanity App? Or is it just a connector?

Hey @mcschirl, I'm so sorry the late reply. For some reason I missed seeing this. The Sanity Connect App, is primarily just a connector, but its written in React and allows for custom webhook implementation. I use it as primarily a connector for my clients and recommend that Shopify data be edited in the Admin always. Sanity is much better for content/marketing teams with what it offers (which is a lot).
