Ask HN: Alternatives to Wordpress for Blogging?
Hi HN,
I want to start blogging again but don't want to use Wordpress. It seems so bloated with functionality that I don't need.
I'm looking for a solution, self-hosted if possible, that is really focussed on making writing blog posts nice and easy. Static page generators not really preferred because lack of mobile support.
Any suggestions? I don't want to reinvent the wheel and write something my self.
Thank,
Sebastian
- modinfo 6y agoHello, my Namesake, my recommendation is Jekyll, I love Jekyll for freedom and simplicity. I posted on my blog about Jekyll: http://sebastian.korotkiewicz.eu/techlog/deploy-jekyll-blog-with-git/ http://sebastian.korotkiewicz.eu/techlog/deploy-jekyll-blog-... And if you are looking for a cool CMS for blogging, I recommend: - Textpattern [self-hosted] PHP (https://textpattern.com/ https://textpattern.com/) - Ghost [self-hosted] NodeJS (https://github.com/TryGhost/Ghost https://github.com/TryGhost/Ghost) And this is my side-project created in one day in nodejs, everyone can write their article: - https://pbsapi.now.sh/ https://pbsapi.now.sh/
