TL,DR: "it’s a single page app written in React and built on Git" I am really curious to see how it can scale with a loooot of content.

I am really curious to see how it can scale with a loooot of content.
- dfcowell 9y agoI imagine it would scale about as well as the git* API backing it up, given that the content list etc. are all pulled from the git host's API (Github in this case). I like the way it uses pull requests to handle drafts. A couple of clever build scripts in the repo would make for a pretty sweet deployment workflow. I'm not super keen on the way it stores uploaded assets though. I understand the benefit of simplicity in only targeting a single API, but it would be nice to target a cloud hosting service (like GCE/AWS storage) for asset uploads.
- shaqbert 9y agoThat one is really meant for small things. Alas, for massive sites with lots of content, Netlify's other services plays nicely with other tools. E.g. his AT&T dev proposes GatsbyJS, Contentful, and Netlify in combination [0].
