Strapi is a Headless CMS built with TypeScript. It has a backend and a frontend. Just take a look at how many configuration files it has just for running the project.
Ghost CMS makes it fairly easy to link your blog to your own domain and set up SSL. The ghost setup command in ghost-cli basically does it for you. However, for me it didn't automatically set up a www subdomain. So I could access, say, https://https://myblog.lol, but https://www.myblog.lol would result in a 502. I was thinking of just adding a CNAME or ALIAS record in my providers DNS settings, but that didn't work somehow. So I just set an A record to point from www to the IP of my Ghost blog, which worked fine, but I didn't have any SSL then on my www subdomain. Thus, I had to tinker a bit in the nginx configs of Ghost, so that it automatically redirects all www traffic to the apex. I think that that's a pretty safe solution.

Project mention: Best way to build a modern back end and admin UI. No black magic | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-21
Following one of the comments in this thread I reviewed two other products in this space - https://www.staticcms.org/ and https://decapcms.org/ - and it looks like the webpages are almost a direct copy of one another, one in dark mode and one in light mode.
I'm a technical product marketer, and I find these type of landing page copying amusing to no end.
Webiny- Open-source enterprise-grade serverless CMS. Own your data. Scale effortlessly. Customize everything.
Project mention: Introducing GPT Crawler - Turn Any Site Into a Custom GPT With Just a URL | dev.to | 2023-12-21I created my first custom GPT based on the Builder.io docs site, forum, and example projects on github and it can now answer detailed questions with code snippets about integrating Builder.io into your site or app. You can try it here (currently requires a paid ChatGPT plan).
Project mention: How "static" are the Azure storage websites and can a basic CMS be used with it? | /r/AZURE | 2023-07-06Hmm...I just tried https://getcockpit.com/, which looks like a super lightweight CMS and PHP doesn't seem to work.
Project mention: A list of SaaS, PaaS and IaaS offerings that have free tiers of interest to devops and infradev | dev.to | 2024-02-05Plasmic - A fast, easy-to-use, robust web design tool and page builder that integrates into your codebase. Build responsive pages or complex components; optionally extend with code; and publish to production sites and apps.
$asset-path has been deprecated. Use $app-css-relative-asset-path instead, which is relative to the app.css that points to the asset folder. As a side effect, the fonts are now loaded from the theme folder instead of the bundle asset folder. This should work out of the box, because all assets of the theme are also copied into the theme folder. (UPGRADE-6.4.md)
These reasons (and many others) are why I decided to create Vrite - an open-source developer content platform.
Yeah, in hindsight, we would have used Next/Vercel. So we're tactically moving over to that. There are many new frameworks, like Astro, that are really exciting, but it seems like Next is the best choice if you have a data-heavy app that has a dynamic mix of SSR and static pages. For Wordpress in particular, I'd recommend that you check out Faust.js. It's build with Next and I'm amazed by how well it works with Wordpress without much effort: https://faustjs.org/
