  • If you want something JavaScript/Typescript driven then PayloadCMS has a pretty great dev experience.

    Awesome Firebase/Firestore-based CMS. The missing admin panel for your Firebase project!

  • Been looking into fireCms.co an extendable gui for interacting with firebase Firestone and storage .

  • 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.

  • flyctl

    Command line tools for fly.io services

  • Hmmmm. I've had some trouble recently where (I think) the Strapi app crashed, when uploading some files (due to the fly.io machines having rather limited resources, where my media would still be listed in the library but, for example the images wouldn't show up - file missing, basically).

NOTE: The number of mentions on this list indicates mentions on common posts plus user suggested alternatives. Hence, a higher number means a more popular project.
