All CMS content lives in Sanity Content Lake. The schema is organized into three layers: documents (top-level content), objects (reusable field groups), and blocks (page builder sections).

How page documents relate to blocks
Every page document has a blocks[] array. Each element in the array is one of 23 block object types. At build time the PAGE_BY_SLUG_QUERY GROQ query expands the full block data. BlockRenderer.astro maps block._type to the matching component via block-registry.ts:
All block components share the same flat-props interface — fields arrive as direct props, not nested under a block object.

Multi-site support
The platform serves three site variants from a single codebase using two environment variables:
| Variant | PUBLIC_SANITY_DATASET | PUBLIC_SITE_ID | Theme | Dev port |
|---|
| YWCC Capstone | production | capstone | red | 4321 |
| RWC US | rwc | rwc-us | blue | 4322 |
| RWC International | rwc | rwc-intl | green | 4323 |
PUBLIC_SANITY_DATASET selects the Sanity dataset at build time.PUBLIC_SITE_ID filters documents within the dataset — each document has an optional site field used for this purpose.PUBLIC_SITE_THEME applies CSS custom property overrides via a [data-site-theme] attribute.- The Studio
siteField enables per-document site assignment; it is hidden on the production dataset (Capstone only).
- Docker Compose can run all three variants simultaneously on separate ports.
When adding a new document type that should be site-filterable, include the site string field and use createSchemaTypesForWorkspace(targetDataset) in the schema factory to conditionally show or hide it based on the active dataset.
