This is awesome however, I’m hesitant due to the pro pricing. I get it, but I’m definitely looking for something we can host that can do this for our customer support team who aren’t the best at git, or markdown for that matter, but have valuable knowledge of setup and configuration of our apps. Any plans to just go full OSS with it and do sponsorships or OSI model foundation support? If this is yet another SaaS prod…

- It's 100% Open Source: https://github.com/pages-cms/pages-cms - You can self-host it for free on Cloudflare Pages: https://pagescms.org/docs/development/#deploy-on-cloudflare - The online version is 100% free as well: https://app.pagescms.org There may be a pro plan at some point for some more complex features.

Tried it out [1], and with a bit of work got it to function. Media, posts, all seem to upload and be viewable. With the lead-in, kind of thought it was going to be "click-a-button, you're done." However, had to wander around a bit figuring out what format zones in the blog example were, and where they needed to be. Also kind of thought it was going to restyle my GitHub page or something, which did not seem to be the…

If you can send me screenshots at hunvreus@gmail.com or file an issue on GitHub ( https://github.com/pages-cms/pages-cms/issues ), I'd love to fix it. > Tried it out [1], and with a bit of work got it to function.

Following one of the comments in this thread, I reviewed two other products in this space - https://www.staticcms.org/ and https://decapcms.org/ .
