WHAT IS GROQ IN SANITY?
GROQ (Graph-Relational Object Queries) is a query language developed by Sanity.io, it is used to query and manipulate the data stored in Sanity's content platform. It is designed to be easy to learn and use, while also providing powerful querying capabilities. With GROQ, developers can retrieve, filter, and aggregate data from their Sanity projects, and perform complex data manipulations using a simple and intuitive syntax. GROQ is similar to SQL (Structured Query Language) in that it allows developers to retrieve specific data from a database, but it's more powerful than SQL in terms of querying structured and unstructured data.
GROQ is also integrated with Sanity's real-time collaboration features, making it easy for teams to work together on data projects. Additionally, it allows developers to fetch and filter data by using the powerful GraphQL syntax, which is widely used in modern web development. GROQ also allows for serverless querying, which means that the queries are executed on the client-side, reducing the load on the server and improving the performance of the application.
