Developers: write code, not content
summary
Claim is that developers should write code not content backed by numbers not slogans: surveys show 50% of developers doing content and spending 4–20 hours a week on entry. Demonstration uses Stackbit + Contentful with a Next.js TypeScript React site, lightweight annotations that map props to CMS fields, component presets and live preview that push edits to preview branches. Result is fewer Jira tickets and content ownership moved upstream.
