Questions without extra clutter
FAQ entries are structured for Sanity, grouped by category, and safe to render from mock data while the CMS is still being configured.
Content
How are artists managed in this prototype?
Artists are fetched from Sanity when credentials are present. If Sanity is not configured or returns no content, the site falls back to mock records stored in the project.
Applications
Does the application form upload files yet?
Not to a real bucket. The current API route validates uploads and returns a mock success response while leaving clear hooks for future Cloudflare R2 storage.
Will Airtable receive submissions now?
Not yet. The data shape is prepared for it, but the current prototype keeps Airtable as a clearly marked future integration step.
Platform
Why use Astro instead of Webflow for the public site?
Astro keeps the public frontend lean and mostly static while giving developers direct control over templates, content fetching, forms, and deployment targets.
