react-static VS Directus

React Static

Can you elaborate on why? What is the difference to Gatsby? Also, is the project still alive? Looking at the commit history, there doesn't seem to be that much going on since 2,5 years https://github.com/react-static/react-static/graphs/code-frequency

Django is still my go-to. Specifically [Django-REST-Framework](https://www.django-rest-framework.org/) with a front-end written with [react-static](https://github.com/react-static/react-static).

Django's ORM is so nice and the ecosystem around it rocks.

Its biggest downside is painful upgrades. They don't really follow [semantic versioning](https://semver.org/)

I still like react-static. Minimalism on react:

react-static (https://github.com/react-static/react-static) is both good and enough. You don't need Gatsby/Next or anything else.

I don't know, it's something I've wanted many times.

Recently I discovered https://directus.io/ which comes pretty close and it's open source.

I using Directus CMS on several projects with pretty complicated flows, api extensions etc. probably there will be some work if you move. I liked Directus is because it's standard SQL I can always move my DB and documents to another solution. I don't use their hosted solution but they have an unlimited offering for $100 / month.

Have you looked at Directus? I’m not sure exactly what your needs are (sorry if I’ve misunderstood). I used it for my most recent project as the backend for data entry/queries/administration. It supports MySQL, but admins don’t need to know anything about SQL to do complex queries/filters/CSV exports from the Directus UI.
