Sanity Studio v6: A focused upgrade

Written by Cody Olsen, Bjørge Næss, Jordan Lawrence, John Siciliano

We're releasing v6 of the sanity package this week, bringing Vite 8 to the Studio's development tooling.

The Vite upgrade brings great improvements for builds. Across the studios we've measured, median build times droped around 4.8×. You also get smaller bundles from improved tree shaking and a faster, more capable default search. Good stuff!

And with Node.js 20 past end of life since April, no longer receiving security patches, we're dropping support for it.

The surface you work with is unchanged: schemas, configuration, and content APIs all stay the same. If you use the Studio, but don't maintain one, there's nothing for you to do.

The pre-release is out now via, so you can test the upgrade ahead of time:
