I'm a coder at a big media company. I would die to find a gaggle of people who want to work with me on a simple CMS on top of Git.

- alexro 15y agoWho you see as your primary audience for this type of thing? I just don't think developers do CMS a lot
- taylorbuley 15y agoIt would definitely have to be designed for the kind of crowd that's never installed Jekyll. As paleolithic as it sounds, I think a CMS build on flat files would be a lot easier to manage than a CMS built on a relational data store. If you don't need accounts and personalization, or can just do that all client side, you could simply load balance across micro AWS instances pulling from the git repo and stick everything behind Cloudfront -- all for a few quarters an hour.
- wyclif 15y agoThe CMS on flat files thing has been done before, for example with a Perl script: http://www.blosxom.com/ http://www.blosxom.com/ Nevertheless I think the concept has potential if done right (and with Github or Dropbox).
- endian 15y agoI've been wanting to do this. I'm in NYC. I'll be less busy soon. This should be done.
