A developer showcased a Sanity project for the Idiocracy Department of Agriculture where fields were irrigated with Brawndo. An agent proposed watering the crops, the human Cabinet approved via a picture-button interface, and Sanity Workflows managed the editing process. A stopwatch measured the time taken to complete the edits across three interfaces.
The project featured a Kiosk Studio with pre-set options and a workflow plugin for the Cabinet to approve or reject proposals. Citizens voted on a public scoreboard. The workflow process began with a proposal, then approval from the Cabinet, followed by watering, growing, and finally harvesting. A rejected proposal resulted in a dust bowl.
The main advantage of this CMS was its simplicity, allowing users with no Git experience to use a data store. The project was built using Claude AI and comprised a Next.js application with next-sanity for live content, and the Cabinet Room App SDK for the dashboard. The repository contained an offline suite to ensure all components worked properly.
