  • Middleman

    Hand-crafted frontend development

    I use middleman[^1] + bulmaCSS + FontAwesome but host on github using the `github.io` domain and upload podcasts to "archive.org"[^2]. The reason I choose this setup is because I want the content to survive as much as possible, hence open source technology and "free & long lived" hosting were requirements.

  • SurveyJS

    Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.

  • Directus

    The Modern Data Stack 🐰 — Directus is an instant REST+GraphQL API and intuitive no-code data collaboration app for any SQL database.

  • content

    The file-based CMS for your Nuxt application, powered by Markdown and Vue components. (by nuxt)

    I would argue that using something like Nuxt/Content[0]is even simpler. I create a new markdown file in my website’s local repo, write the content and commit if it’s ready for publishing. No need for the FTP step and version control is build in.

    This setup is also completely free since the content lives on GitHub and my static site on render.com (but any static site hosting will work).

    And since it’s Nuxt based, it automatically also supports more advanced features such as tagging, advanced queries and filtering.

    Can only recommend it!
