Building a modern Headless CMS solution can be frustrating, but it absolutely doesn't have to be! Storyblok offers an amazing, out-of-the-box block-based CMS solution which works incredibly well with the well-established Next.js Framework.
Tech Stack
For the backend I simply used the Storyblok Headless CMS service in the free tier which already includes more than I need for the foreseeable future.
For the frontend I decided to go with Next.js, simply because its one of my core competencies. I also know my way around SEO optimization in Next.js so this was a no-brainer.
Since the backend doesn't require any deployments I only had to worry about the frontend deployments. Since it's Next.js I chose to go with Vercel, since it interates really well with Next.js and everything just works out of the box. I don't have that much traffic, so the free tier is more than enough.
