Most support bots have no context about you. No account, no project, no history. You ask a question, get a generic answer. We wanted ours to be better. Ep 2 of Sanity on Sanity, on the support agent our team rebuilt with Sanity Context. Live July 23 in Discord.

We bet you've spent more hours than you'd admit getting a row of partner logos to look right. Our colleague @rosti.no automated it. Pixel density analysis, aspect ratio normalization. Just maths (not AI). npm install react-logo-soup 🧪 sanity.io/blog/the-logo-soup-problem
<LogoSoup
  logos={["/logo1.svg", "/logo2.svg"]}
  baseSize={48}
  gap={16}
  scaleFactor={0.5}
  densityAware={true}
  densityFactor={0.5}
  alignBy="bounds" | "visual-center" | "visual-center-x" | "visual-center-y"
  cropToContent={false}

  // Custom image renderer (e.g. Next.js Image)
  renderImage={(props) => (<CustomImageComponent ...props />

The best part is that you can then use @vercel.com's V0 and have it build things for you. This is why I moved @codingcat.dev over to it as well. The down side though is that I let the spirit of the site go and it has lost its uniqueness as a brand. So I need to get back to being creative!
