TL;DR

  1. Pages is a small publishing system on Sanity that turns documents into standalone pages, each with a four-character URL.

  2. It gives notes, documents, and project explanations a home without a new route on my site or a third-party workspace I do not control.

  3. Sanity stays the single source of truth, while the public app handles presentation on its own.

I have been working on Pages, a small publishing system for turning documents into standalone pages that live outside my main website. It came from wanting somewhere to put a document, a short note, or a project explanation, apart from either scaffolding a new route on my main site or leaning on a third-party workspace tool I did not fully control.

I wrote a case study on how it works: the editor, the four-character URLs, and the architecture behind keeping Sanity as the single source of truth while the public application handles presentation on its own.
