## About this site

Mark Gibbons writes here about the Sitecore platform — SitecoreAI, headless architecture, upgrades and
migrations — and about putting AI and Model Context Protocol tooling to work inside real delivery
teams. Mark is a Sitecore Technology MVP, an award Sitecore gives each year to a small group of
people outside the company for their contribution to the Sitecore community.

## What you'll find here

### Sitecore

Platform architecture, headless front ends, and the upgrade and migration work that gets a team from XP to SitecoreAI - written from projects that shipped.

### AI in delivery teams

My experiences with what works and what doesn't when it comes to using AI to drive delivery.

### Community and open source

Sitecore wouldn't be what it is today without the community. This blog is part of me giving back.
