Give https://www.webiny.com/ a try, it’s $9 per user on multi site instance, free for a single instance. It’s very cheap to host, i typically pay around $0.026 a month, that’s only a handful of API calls though.

We'd welcome your contributions to https://github.com/webiny/webiny-js, it's fullstack TypeScript. You'll find we sometimes use React in unconventional ways.

Try it out! https://www.webiny.com/

I think there is plenty of room for these "Software-in-Your-Cloud" models. So far, I know of us (FormKiQ) and https://www.webiny.com/

The most typical approach is having a CMS admin panel sit somewhere on the server; everyone with an account uses this. This is a very convenient approach, especially when working with a team. This way, many people can work on different articles simultaneously without worrying about potential conflicts or overwriting stuff. The only con is related to security - everyone can try to get inside, and if you forget to update our CMS or some user have a weak password, it can be someone outside of our team. WordPress, Drupal, CraftCMS, or Ghost are perfect examples of such CMSs.

I checked one website in that list, it uses CraftCMS, which apparently has htmx bundled. (https://github.com/craftcms/cms/tree/main/src/web/assets/htm...)

Would be interesting to know which other CMS'es make use of htmx (and to what degree).

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.

You're basically looking for any CMS that supports headless mode. E.g. Strapi (https://strapi.io/, NodeJS based), CraftCMS (https://craftcms.com/, PHP based) or countless others.

Craft CMS

It's built on Craft CMS. Makes the relationships between elements (a match and a player, for example) super easy.

Is there a reason you aren’t using an existing CMS? There’s a lot that provide all the UI functionality you are talking about and then expose it via a API to be consumed in your front end. https://craftcms.com is one option I’ve had good success with.
