sveltia-cms
Git-based headless CMS. Successor to Netlify CMS (now Decap CMS). Modern UX, first-class i18n support, mobile support + 100s of improvements. Framework-agnostic, open source & free.
Payload, a CMS powered by Next.js, or Sveltia CMS, a Decap CMS alternative using Svelte, are examples of CMS that I recommend to avoid until they become framework agnostic.

Sanity, Contentful, and Hygraph are a few examples. Very often a CMS has a pricing page, but is also open-source, and has docs on how to self-host it for free. A great example of that is Directus, and there is no need to avoid those CMS.

If you are interested to gain confidence with custom components, I recommend to build component that stores latitude and longitude of location on a map, and provide interface using Google Maps, OpenStreetMap, or similar map provider.

As with any CMS I come across, I try to use it with an application. This time I decided to use Astrolink, a minimal alternative to Linktree. You can check it out on a demo page, or see it's details in Astro theme catalog.
