Today we're releasing two new packages!

• react-tinacms-github
• next-tinacms-github

With these packages you will finally be able to use GitHub as a backend and implement your very own Open Authoring solution with Next.js! In the last couple weeks we created this packages and went through the setup process over-and-over to smooth it out. Although the packages are available there are some documentation changes still in the works this week.

Tinacms.org is getting Guides to help people learn how to use Tina with Gatsby and Next. If you're interested in seeing what that looks like, check out the pull request.

Next up for Tina + GitHub is Branching. The UI is designed and now it's a matter of updating react-tinacms-github to allow user's to switch the branch on the GithubClient.

Interested in the core team's roadmap? Check out the Open Authoring with GitHub + Next.js project.
