Hi HN. primo is an IDECMSCLSSG (short for IDE, CMS, Component Library, Static Site Generator) I’ve been working on for a few months. The idea came from wanting to host a Notion page at a domain name and not being able to. Once I made the initial version - a basic text editor - the rest of the features just came naturally (except for the SSG, which came from not wanting to deal with hosting). I’d written off freelance…

Looks amazing ! +1 on Svelte ! My new goto tool and very refreshing :)

Totally. Not only made this possible technically but was a huge inspiration.

It sounds great, but the permissions it needs is too much for me: > Repositories > Public and private > This application will be able to read and write all public and private repository data. Would it be possible to use deploy keys for specific repositories instead?

Agreed.. No way you’re getting access to private repos, ever.

Too bad, looks like a really good product.

I can't swipe forward / back using the touchpad on your site. Looks like this rule that you set on the html element is causing it:

  overscroll-behavior-x: none;

- Is it possible for the generated static site to be HTML+CSS only (no JavaScript)?

- How optimal/minified is the generated code?

- FYI, if you have third party cookies blocked, logging in with GitHub will fail (the login popup opens then immediately closes with no error indication). While failure might be expected, it would be nice to give the user a hint on what might have gone wrong.

I'm curious to learn more, but I wish to opt-out from 3rd party trackers beforehand - there doesn't appear to be any method to do this, so am I (and any other Europeans in the same boat) entirely unwelcome on your site?

Or am I missing the feature (I did try and look)?

I’ve been moving towards implementing an API based CMS, specifically prismic.io which allows me to setup content elements that marketing staff can edit. Can you explain a bit more about the non-tech user experience for content editors? Would love to find a magic Wordpress replacement with a proper git & tailwind supported workflow for devs and a simple interface for content editors. I’m hoping this fits the bill.

Seems like it should be right up your alley. Here's a gif of what content editors see: https://imgur.com/7W9zcW9

So there's a simplified toolbar (no dev stuff) but they can still add page sections and components from the component library. And when they edit components they only see the fields. You'll be able to control which stuff they have access to in the future.

I'm impressed by how thoughtful the design and implementation is. Good work! I look forward to seeing this grow.

What's the idea behind calling it Primo?

- The static site is actually just html/css (and js, if you have any). any ideas on how I could make that more explicit?

- It's pretty optimal. It's not minifying the HTML so you can see the tree in Github and see changes. But PurgeCSS gets run on the bundle before it builds out, so your css should be as small as possible.

- Hadn't considered that, thanks!
