Dubistro

This was a project I did for a local musical duo who wanted a simple website to more easily receive bookings. I was approached by Maxim about creating a website for him and his partner and I was more than willing to help. I had the freedom to use whatever technology I preferred, with their only requirements being a design that is fast, mobile-friendly, and user-friendly. With these criteria in mind, I set about finding a suitable techstack. I immediately thought of using a CMS like Contentful for their ease of use and ease of maintenance. Given the nature of the site, all content could be static and only need updating when they make a change to the CMS system. This is where static site generators (SSG) and headless CMS systems come in. By using SSGs, such as Next.js, to pull content from a headless CMS, in this case Sanity CMS, I was able to generate a static website. This approach is ideal for achieving a custom UI design and enables easy hosting on Vercel, free of charge. It also enables non-coders to manage content through an easy-to-use CMS interface, which triggers automatic website rebuilds via webhooks.
