Show HN: Primo – a visual CMS with Svelte blocks, a code editor, and SSG
Not sure if this is what you’re after but give https://getkirby.com/ a try

Grav is a modern open-source flat-file CMS
Personally think https://getkirby.com is the entry to beat but I guess it’s just because I’m used to it and it works incredibly well for my use case.
- What technology do you use to build websites these days?

WP20 and Audrey Scholars – Matt Mullenweg
I guess it depends what you need to build. I used to use Wordpress for all my personal and client projects but I then moved to Kirby[0] and I couldn’t be happier.
But I think it highly depends on what kind of projects you work on.

Ask HN: How do I make a website in 2023?
I can recommend Kirby (https://getkirby.com/), a flat file PHP CMS. It’s fast, has a panel to update data and can be hosted on any basically any PHP host. Just use the quite simple PHP-templates and add CSS & JS like you already know how to do. No need to complicate things.

Go with PHP
PHP has a lot of top tier CMSes. IMHO bunch of them are even better than Statamic. Craft CMS (https://craftcms.com/) is a lot more mature database based CMS. Kirby (https://getkirby.com/) is better at flat-file and has a lot better admin interface. Twill (https://twillcms.com/) is better integrated in Laravel and is fully open-source. Statamic mostly feels like it's sitting besides Laravel and they call themselves Laravel based for marketing.
- Headless CMS with the best documentation for vue/nuxt.js

Is a custom CMS a bad idea?
If this sounds like what you need, take a look at https://getkirby.com/ It's the tool of choice for me for smaller-medium things, it's also simple to set up and to maintain.

best php-based cms/tech choice
Another area of CMS Systems are Flat File System based CMS which I did last time not hear a lot around but there was a lot of noice in the past from Kirby CMS and Grav CMS. Instead of a database they store all there data inside files and I mostly saw more for simpler website build with it where not specific security releated user context based content where used.

Tech Debt: My Rust Library Is Now a CDO
Guess I'm one of the annoying users who complained when armin's Lektor (https://github.com/lektor/lektor) started going dormant back when, but I loved it for a while. I'm on Astro now, but a big thanks for helping a younger version for me.

The theory versus the practice of “static websites”
Lektor CMS is sort of a prototype-ish thing doing this: https://www.getlektor.com/
It has (used to have? Can't find them on the site now) pre-packaged binaries that you would drop into a folder structure generated by the technically-minded person, and the content editor can simply click on that binary, which opens the backend of the CMS in the web browser, make changes and click deploy.

Flask CMS - Wordpress alike
There have been several Flask-based CMS's but I don't remember most of them. IIRC Lektor is based on Flask.
- Why isn’t there a python version of Jekyll / Hugo
-
A SvelteKit template for building CMS-free editable websites
Static hosting could be enough for many sites and one could combine the technical and UX advantages of your dynamic interface with the advantages of static sites for security and distribution.
I found that useful when i worked with https://www.getlektor.com/ years ago. In lektor the dynamic part runs on a users desktop machine, but it of course wouldn't need to.
