Lectores urbanos is a non-profit organization whose goal is to encourage critical thinking. Its central strategy is to promote the habit of reading, art, and social values. Lectores Urbanos currently operates in Mexico.
The goal is to allow people to access free online books by scanning a QR code. People can find the QR code by visiting their physical school buildings, buying food from their favorite shops, and more.
This web app is a prototype/MVP. It uses Next.js for the front end and Sanity to handle its content. For the styling, we are using Chakra UI, which offers suitable solutions for building accessible components.
The use of a headless CMS like Sanity is to allow admin users to maintain the content without needing programming skills. It comes with a native Sanity Studio that offers features like instant side-by-side content previews, intuitive editing, image transformation, and content deployment scheduling.
Note
This app uses the
/pagesdirectory for Next.js routing for now. Thinking of migrating it to the app directory later on once it gets more stable.
