Real BTST Blog page with three published product-update posts in the generated Next.js application.
Blog is the canonical full-stack proof: one plugin supplies routes, backend behavior, client UI, and a visible published result.

BTST supplies

  • Post and tag data models with typed CRUD APIs and lifecycle hooks
  • SSR-aware list, draft, editor, tag, and post routes
  • Published-page metadata and sitemap entries
  • Customizable Blog pages, hooks, and editor UI

You supply

  • A BTST database adapter
  • An image upload implementation when editor uploads are enabled
  • An authorization policy when protected authoring operations are enabled
  • The application shell, public origin, and deployment

You own and customize

Posts stay in your database, routes run in your application, and ejected Blog views become editable application code.
