It doesn't require JS, so that's odd. Do you have JS turned off? It's using instant.page in the bundle, but I would expect that to fallback to the default behavior.

See: curl https://primo.af How is that supposed to fallback? Theres nothing there.

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.

Note sure whether that is similar to what you are looking for, but I've been working on a CMS that commits a JSON file to Git. It is called FrontAid CMS and currently in public beta: https://frontaid.io/

It works like this: Create a data model and put it in your Git repo. FrontAid will pick it up and generate input fields accordingly. The content editors can then create/update the input fields and the resulting content is then stored in a JSON file in your own Git repository. The big advantage of that is that your content lives where your actual code is.

this is pretty neat! any plans for dynamic content, or data sources? as well could you be able to show how the authentication mechanism works?

Yeah definitely. I imagine it’ll just have to auto-build whenever I gets upstream data updates. I’ll make sure to update the docs; it’s pretty simple atm, just invite a user (set them as a content editor or developer) and they can join your site. And if you want to give them build access you add them as a collaborator on the repo.

I'd rather leave $ on the table if it means enabling independent devs (especially those in developing economies) to make $$$

Logged in just to say congrats, this attitude is seldom encountered, even among those building their products almost entirely on freely available foundations.

That’s the craziest thing to me. There’s no reason OSS has to be a thing. Here’s to hoping greed never kills it.

Is https://primo.af generated by primo?

It’s not, because it contains the app file (albeit codesplit), but that would be neat

I'm getting a completely blank page? I would expect a static site generator (or at least any one I would choose to use) to create pages that do not require javascript. Edit: My bad. Still, for a landing page for something like this, wouldn't you want to eat your own dogfood?

Downvoting due to my misunderstanding? This is a static-site creation app so makes sence that it would require javascript even if the resulting page does not. Are there any pages created with this thing I can look at?

Good question. I don’t want to link the small-biz sites I’ve made with it, but I’ll build/publish the demo page in a sec.

Here it is: https://primocafe.vercel.app/ And here's the repo: https://github.com/mateomorris/primocafe
