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
- Kirby: Simple Flat-File CMS
-
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 kind of CMS for custom website?
Check out KirbyCMS. A PHP based files-only CMS. Can also be used as headless CMS. Works on most shared hosts and doesn't need a database. You'll have to do some basic PHP for the templates, though.
- 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.
- Feedback call for Tailkits ✨
- Headless CMS with the best documentation for vue/nuxt.js

best php-based cms/tech choice
Beside Symfony there is Laravel Framework , I will not go into deep difference between this frameworks as it really is just taste of what your team likes more (active record vs datamapper, facade/helpers vs dependency injection, blade vs twig, ...), as already mention above this kind of CMS make sense if Website is just one part of your application and you have to build more then just a simple digital business card / website. In Laravel world there are CMS like October CMS / Winter CMS, which target the same providing a CMS based on the Full Stack Larave framework and give you all features of that framework. Another already mention CMS in Laravel world is Statmatic.

Do you make your own CMS?
Chances are a lightweight CMS already exists. Winter CMS is one such option.

Would my site run faster if I abandoned Wordpress and 'rewrote it from scratch'?
Or Winter CMS (https://wintercms.com/) ;)

Ask HN: What CMS are you using in 2022?
As someone who dabbled in PHP but is mostly a self-taught JS hobbyist dev, I have been using and loving Directus (https://directus.io) since around the time they switched to Node. Development velocity is exceptional with new features released every couple of weeks and bugfixes/enhancements even more frequent, the community and core team is fantastic, and I like the fact that if I ever decide to switch to another CMS for some reason, there's no real import/export process, I just delete the directus_tables in my database, and done.
Pocketbase (https://pocketbase.io/) piqued my interest after seeing it here and on ProductHunt, but I don't think it would be the right call for a client before it hits a stable release.
I also very much enjoyed OctoberCMS (although it has its quirks), but there was a fairly acrimonious split in the community there, and OctoberCMS is no longer open source, and I haven't used the fork (WinterCMS: https://wintercms.com/)
I enjoyed using Apostrophe (https://apostrophecms.com/) for a while, but ultimately I felt like I was doing a lot of stuff in a way that didn't come naturally to me, and although Mongo seems a logical choice when you look at Apostrophe's page model, it worried me a bit that the data would not be easy to move if I ever wanted to.

Any suggestions for a "client-oriented" CMS? More info into the post.
I'm biased, but it might be worth taking a look at Winter CMS. It's built on Laravel, so you get everything you would with Laravel but it also has some pretty powerful features on top of what you get out of the box with Laravel. Its plugin system and extensibility is also second to none. It's different from a few of the other options though in that you don't add it to an existing project, you build your projects from the start in it.
-
What are the weirdest CMS you've seen used to host content?
Winter CMS is an open source fork of OctoberCMS. They've just put Laravel 9 support in place as well.
-
Is there a best framework or software to develop websites on for the future?
If you're looking at October I'd give Winter a look too (https://wintercms.com), October is no longer open source and Winter is the open source fork of October. (Disclaimer: I'm the lead maintainer for Winter CMS)
