  • decap-cms

    A Git-based CMS for Static Site Generators

  • I've always just used a github one, so I'm not 100% sure. U can find more info here

  • vscode-front-matter

    Front Matter is a CMS running straight in Visual Studio Code. Can be used with static site generators like Hugo, Jekyll, Hexo, NextJs, Gatsby, and many more...

  • Use GitLab Web IDE and learn Markdown. It is free, open source and the mobile experience is decent. From there, take a look at https://frontmatter.codes/ in GitPod.io or locally in VSCode, not great on mobile but very powerful, free and open source. I also like https://cloudcannon.com which isn't free or open source, but it is an excellent live editing CMS for Hugo and the mobile experience is really nice.

  • 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.
