I recently made a university CS club website [http://csclubsjsu.com/ http://csclubsjsu.com/] using the Jekyll+Github stack. It wasn't using any platform in particular, just a Jekyll project automatically deployed to our server from a Github project using post-commit hooks.
The entire thing took almost no time at all and I've received a lot of positive feedback about being able to edit most pages 'live'.
- subpixel 15y agoI'm interested in what you used for live-editing, and whether you think the OP's product would solve any pain for you.
- eblume 15y agoIf you visit the site you'll see 'Edit this page' links at the top of each page (sans a few) - go ahead and click it to find out! As far as the OP's product goes, I think it mainly helps you in the design & layout phase along with the WYSIWYG editor. It's a CS club, so WYSIWYG is not going to be popular, and we already did the design & layout. So I don't think so, but I do see OP's product as an endorsement of the idea.
- subpixel 15y agoAh, I see. I was assuming your solution was also edit-in-place. Still cool though!
- mixonic 15y agoYeah, obviously Jekyll+Github is part of the inspiration here. I love GitHub. I think they are one of the most creative and fantastic companies I have ever seen. GitHub just isn't very layperson friendly though, and I don't see them going there.
