Making Sense of Sitecore’s Content Management System Offerings
When Sitecore announced their Cloud Offerings at Sitecore Symposium in October 2022, It crystalized their composable strategy in providing separate product offerings that were each best of breed but could be better together. When you look at Engagement Cloud and Commerce Cloud, with products that have clear capabilities with little cross over, that strategy is […]
Not just Next.js! Making XM Cloud work with .NET Core Headless Renderings
Next.js is a wonderful framework and paired with its vendor platform (Vercel) it indeed provides exceptional capabilities for building natively headless applications. That unfortunately shadows out another great SDK for headless implementations – .NET Core Renderings, which in my opinion is undervalued. So, I decided to give it some more care by making it work […]

Headful or Headless AEM? Why not both with Hybrid? – Part 2
Previously I presented a common situation where an engineering team might push for Headless AEM and covered why, in my opinion, a Hybrid solution is a better approach.

Content Hub ONE Full Review in Action – Mastering Content (part 1 / 3)
Most of my readers know me as a dedicated Sitecore professional, however, close friends are aware of the variety of my hobbies. Some of them also know me as a Scotch whisky expert and collector.

Using NextUI with Sitecore’s Headless SXA framework
Sitecore developers transitioning from MVC to headless face something they are probably have not been used to in their time developing Sitecore solutions: “Choice.” While you could integrate whatever CSS and JavaScript libraries into your MVC solutions, it is nothing compared to the ecosystem that Next.js and React provide and how easy they make it […]
