elegant-cli VS Docusaurus

Yeah I received a similar email as well.

YC has a funky hodgepodge of React on Rails for their website, and it could use a major update considering they’re the leading tech incubator.

I emailed Dang about it, and he suggested that I build a product that solves this issue instead.

I ended up building a prototype on top of Docusaurus, and received a ton of developer feedback.

We’ve been working on it for about 6 months consistently now, and we’ve made huge progress on a simple CMS and content framework that would solve all of YC’s issues such as this accidental newsletter blast.

My goal with this project is to upgrade the YC website, as well as Paul Graham’s.

What do you’all think?

My ADHD meds, coffee, GitHub Issues and Discussions, and using a simple ‘todo.txt’ file in my local box.

For content creation, I created this little React based Wordpress alternative that is free to use and 100% open source: https://github.com/elegantframework/elegant-cli

For emails, I use ConvertKit to collect email signups and send out updates to my subscribers.

Would anyone be interested in a self hosted version of what Patreon offers for creators?

I have been working on a free Wordpress alternative that is built with React, and removes the guard rails and burdens for creators that WP creates.

I have had requests to include Twitch like features such as tipping, subscriptions, and power ups.

I started planning out these features to get them into the development pipeline and I realized that some of these features are the value that Patreon creates.

Would developers/creators be interested in having subscription tiers, tips, power ups, rewards, etc, on their own website alongside their content?

I am currently working with a local creator who recently switched over to us; and we are piloting ways to level up his content using his Patreon account.

But as the author of the article mentioned, this creator goes by a stage name when he’s connecting with fans.

Haha yeah, this is my tech safe space lol..

The career path hasn’t been so bad. Applied my understanding of electrons to computer science, and have launched a number of apps and services since.

Currently working on a side project that’s a WordPress alternative built with Next.js and Tailwind :)

Facebook's React/Markdown SSG docusaurus does those things: https://docusaurus.io/

Docusaurus is an open-source static site generator built on React and has emerged as a popular tool for developing and maintaining product documentation. Its ease of use, extensive features, and robust community support make it a compelling choice for many organizations.

Wondering why Docusaurus (https://docusaurus.io) did not match their needs. Works perfectly fine as a blogging engine for our tech blog.

This is developed by Meta. You can create really nice-looking documentation websites super fast.

Docusaurus, a documentation tool by Facebook, hosts a showcase of other websites that use Docusaurus on their Homepage. The list of websites of this showcase is a typescript files that is maintained by Docusaurus devs, and that you can add your website to through PR: https://github.com/facebook/docusaurus/blob/main/website/src/data/users.tsx

Fix "Edit this page" links at the bottom of each doc (Problem with the Docusaurus build I guess)
