During this crash course, we’ll create a new project in the headless CMS, create the content model and data using the Kontent.ai CLI. Then, we’ll use the content to build an Astro website including front-end components and rich text resolution using Portable Text.
This will be hands-on workshop, you’ll need VS Code, Git, NPM and basic knowledge of JavaScript. Don’t worry, I will explain all the steps as we advance through the workshop and you will be able to directly ask any questions.

On this crash course, we'll create a new project in the headless CMS, fill it with data, and use the content to build a multilingual Next.js app. We'll spend a lot of time in code to:
- Generate strongly typed models and structure for the content
- Set up the site for multiple languages
- Use respective language codes in content fetching and incorporate language fallbacks
- Resolve multilingual content from rich text fields
You will learn:
- How to work with content from headless CMS (Kontent.ai)
- How content model can be leveraged to generate TS types and what benefits it brings to your project
- How to add multilingual capabilities to Next.js website
- How to use language fallbacks
- What are the typical gotchas when working with multilingual content

In this workshop, I’ll first show you how to create a new project in a headless CMS, fill it with data, and use the content in your project. Then, we’ll spend the rest of time in code, we will:
- Generate strongly typed models and structure for the fetched content.
- Use the content in components
- Resolve content from rich text fields into React components
- Touch on deployment pipelines and possibilities for discovering content-related issues before hitting production
You will learn:
- How to work with content from headless CMS
- How content model can be leveraged to generate TS types and what benefits it brings to your project
- How not to use string literals for content in code anymore
- How to do rich text resolution into React components
- How to minimize or avoid content-related issues before hitting production
