GrapesJS VS Hexo

What I found was GrapesJS. I'd definitely recommend it: https://grapesjs.com/

Open-source web builder framework for creating templates without coding. Website - GitHub

I agree. It is a little confusing. As a dev I can see how it might be useful when I don't have time to build the interface. But not really sure.

Have you looked at something like https://grapesjs.com/ for templates?

E.g https://grapesjs.com/

Take a look at grapesjs ( https://github.com/GrapesJS/grapesjs) . . . With a bit of work u can make a pretty good editor using it. For reference u can check out something like poweredit (https://github.com/anatoli-dp/poweredit) that uses it (I am aware it is a pretty poor example.domt hate me but it was my first take at using the framework and making an application) as well as quite a few others. But it does have a lot to use as a starting point for your own

A lot of great suggestions here and some stuff I’ve never heard of before!

Throwing my own suggestion into the ring, as I was just looking into this last week.

I started setting up a blog using Hexo. It’s another Node based SSG that uses markdown and supports tags. It has a lot of neat plugins that people have developed, too.

I like it so far!

In my case, the latter is not possible because this blog is a static site, generated via Hexo and hosted on GitHub. It simply lacks a modifiable active server component.

Hexo — best lightweight SSG

Previously I've used Nuxt2 and even sooner - hexo.io

To make their creation easier, numerous open-source static websites generators are available: Jekyll, Hugo, Gatsby, Hexo, etc. Most of the time, the content is managed through static (ideally Markdown) files or a Content API. Then, the generator requests the content, injects it in templates defined by the developer and generates a bunch of HTML files.

Hexo's

I'm currently using Hexo, I write articles in markdown, commit them to a git repository and push them to Github. I then have a Github Action to bundle the static website and publish it on Github Pages, so I get free hosting 👌

There are also many alternatives for selecting Static-Side Generating blog framework such as Hexo, Gatsby, Next.js (more details here). We will pick Hexo as our framework because it is a fast, simple & powerful blog framework.

Some alternatives I'm considering learning instead of Gatsby are Jeckyll or Hexo.
