Concepts & naming patterns

• Document: a stand-alone entity in Sanity's dataset
  • Can have routes (such as landingPage, blog.article, caseStudy, etc.) or not (a teamMember, blog.tag, caseStudy.category, etc.)
• Singletons: special types of documents that are unique
  • Editors can't delete, unpublish or duplicate them
  • Examples: the homepage, settings, header navigation, etc.
• Collections: groups of documents, of one or more types
  • Collections of blog articles, case studies, FAQs, concepts, etc.
• Collection indexes: the routes that list documents in a collection
  • They usually have singletons associated with them, like the blogIndex or caseStudiesIndex documents
• Sanity studio: the CMS interface we use to edit content in the /manage route
