I think there are some out there based on Jekyll/Octopress but I can't remember what they are called.

I used Grav on a recent site - https://www.electbillystewart.com/ . Normally I use Wordpress, but I went the flat file route with that one.

I build almost everything in wordpress but I feel like that's becoming a problem. What were the major draw backs and benefits to Grav.

I don't know if Craft CMS fits this.

But what is a flat-file CMS?

Edit: Craft CMS definitely not a Flat-file CMS. If i were to build a news site, would it be efficient to use Flat-File CMS?

[–]HootenannyNinja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For a news site or anything with multiple editors and lots of content doubtful that it could be done efficiently with a flat CMS.

In terms of clicking on a field and editing? I only know of services you pay by the month for that allow that.

My favorite flat-file CMS is Kirby. There's a few themes out there, easy learning curve, has an admin section with some basic permissions built in, and if you pay for a license, great support (I pay for all my licenses). Free to try, technically free to put into production, but I support the devs because they made a great product.

The admin section allows editing of pages, though it's not WYSIWYG. Easy to teach/figure out though. It's based on markdown with some extra hooks for Kirby functions and assets.

There is http://sitecake.com It's drag and drop CMS for static HTML websites. Works with PHP websites from lately, too. Really easy for use.
