I am not sure I understand; could you please explain?
That sounds like working directly on flat html files; or are you talking about working directly with a DB that then writes to flat files?
Thanks!

- Grumbledour 6y agoI was thinking about something like grav cms. You put markdown files in a folder and it creates html for you when the page is requested. When you use their web based admin tools, they also just change the markdown files. Easy to use from web and local. I guess many static site generators work the same and we had good success teaching our content creators some markdown. For many, it is often easier than navigating something like drupal and working with the kinks of whatever WYSIWYG editor.
