Why does my TinaCMS build fail in CI/CD?

This usually happens because the framework build is running before the 'tinacms build' command. TinaCMS must generate its GraphQL client and TypeScript types first so the framework can reference them during compilation.

How do I access the TinaCMS admin interface in Docker?

You must bind the dev server to 0.0.0.0 instead of localhost. Use the command 'tinacms dev -c "next dev --hostname 0.0.0.0"' to allow external access through the Docker container.

What is the benefit of a Git-backed CMS?

It stores your content as Markdown or MDX files directly in your repository. This allows for version control, branching, and a unified developer workflow where content changes follow the same PR process as code.

How do I fix ESbuild errors in my Tina configuration?

Keep your tina/config.ts imports minimal. Avoid importing frontend-only code that uses 'window' or React hooks, and import specific files rather than entire component directories.
