Creating a Design System Website with Strapi, Next.js, and GPT-4  (3-part blog series) #1491

Open emmanuelbacf opened 4 months ago

emmanuelbacf commented 4 months ago

What is your article idea?

This blog series will be a comprehensive guide on creating a design system website using Strapi, Next.js, and GPT-4. It will guide readers through the entire development process, from setting up the backend with Strapi and creating the frontend with Next.js, to using GPT-4 for generating design guidelines and component documentation, and finally building a searchable component library. By the end of the series, readers will have a fully functional design system website that can be used to streamline design processes and ensure consistency across projects.

Below is an outline for each part of the series, ensuring that each article builds on the previous one and leads to a functional design system website by the end.
