Show HN: Pages CMS β A CMS for GitHub
This looks and sounds great...
I'm currently using [contentlayer.dev](https://github.com/contentlayerdev/contentlayer) to manage docs and blog content, mostly .mdx files on urlbox.com.
It works well with next.js but unfortunately is abandonware now.
I also have a few custom remark/rehype plugins.
You're right it is a pain to update articles buried in your repo especially with less technical team members. I already tried out TinaCMS to try and solve the editing issues, but their editor wasn't so nice, and it seemed to implicitly make a commit on every tiny change to any content, so I'm really hoping I could use something like this to edit my already existing content...

What is your tech stack for blog websites? (not wordpress)
For my personal website, I use Next and Contentlayer since I prefer to write my content as markdown files. I then host it using vercel's free tier.

Jumpstart a content-driven NextJS site with Flowershow
Flowershow uses Contentlayer to turn your Markdown content into data stored in JSON files. By defining document schemas, Contentlayer can generate data that is validated (making it type-safe) and can be imported from anywhere in your Next.js app.

Contentlayer with next/image
My first reaction was to use MDX and use next/image just as in the example. But that means that we can't use normal markdown images and it turns out that this won't work with contentlayer. This wont work, because Next.js does some magic on the import of the static image. The object which gets returned by the import, contains not only a path to the image, it contains also the width and height, plus a very small version of the image for the blurred placeholder. This magic does not work if the MDX file is loaded with contentlayer, because contentlayer uses its own bundler, which does not know about the import magic for images.

MDX autolink headings
After the installation we have to tell MDX that it should use the plugin. The example below shows a contentlayer config, but it should work with every MDX setup.

Ask HN: What's the simplest static website generator?
I suggest you to try out eleventhy (https://www.11ty.dev/)
Quite simple to start, and a nice system to add some scripting and styles without the requirement of bringing in a framework.

Eleventy - Create a global production flag
A production flag enables you to run activities in dev or production such as minifying assets, showing draft posts, etc. There isn't a built-in flag or function that comes with eleventy (11ty) specifically for this. However we have this info at our fingertips.

Removing React is just weakness leaving your codebase
Itβs 2024, and you are about to start a new project. Do you reach for React, a framework you know and love or do you look at one of the other hot new frameworks like Astro, Enhance, 11ty, SvelteKit or gasp, plain vanilla Web Components?

Eleventy vs. Next.js for static site generation
Eleventy is a fast and powerful SSG that really shines when it comes to pure static site generation because it does not require the loading of a client-side JavaScript bundle in order to serve content.

Why You Should Write Your Own Static Site Generator
https://doublejosh.com/post/186193119278/metalsmithjs-is-sti...
Then two years ago I needed a more robust SSR system based on React, so I went with GatsbyJS. It's insanely mature and intuitive, but as we all know that community and business is now drying up too. But the framework is still great.
Now everyone sings the praises of NextJS, which can be used for SSR but is intended for applications and active server endpoints. But more complexity doesn't mean better.
I'm keen to try other simple frameworks when the result is a static site. I may give https://www.11ty.dev a shot.
