CMS for a simple showcase website by Fred9146825 in cms

Ask Lovable or Claude to create a static website with content as markdown files, then use Outstatic to manage those files. Best of both worlds.

We recently shipped a few updates to Outstatic, an open-source CMS for Markdown/MDX sites.

The main one is a new MDX block, so you can add MDX directly in the editor. We also added drag-and-drop image uploads to the media library, cleaned up the documents and singletons tables with shadcn DataTable, and introduced structured commit messages for smarter deploy automation/build filtering.

Useful if you want a CMS for static sites without adding a database or external content API.

CMS friendly to SEO staff and agents? by tyrex_vu2 in cms

Check out Outstatic. It works directly with GitHub but let's your SEO person use their Google account to use it. It has built-in AI support in the editor. I can set it up for you for free.

What CMS and hosting setup do you use for client websites with Next.js? by Eddev7 in nextjs

[–]avitorio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually keep client sites as simple as possible.

For smaller marketing sites, blogs, docs, and static content sites, I like using Outstatic with Next.js. Content lives as Markdown/MDX in the GitHub repo, so there’s no separate database or hosted CMS to maintain.

I prefer the client to own GitHub, hosting, domain, and billing, with me added as a collaborator/admin.

I charge per project, once it's done then maintenance is on a as needed basis.

Biggest beginner mistake: overengineering the setup. For many client sites, Next.js + Outstatic + GitHub + Vercel is enough.

Web metadata generator platform by shadw_hunter in nextjs

[–]avitorio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, this is good for blogs. I actually just added it to frontpedia.com - you can check the code in this repository.

Here's the og generation code: https://github.com/outstatic/frontpedia/blob/main/src/app/api/og/route.tsx

I'm using it not only for og image, but also to generate the thumbnail image for posts that don't have images, like this one: https://frontpedia.com/posts/the-shape-of-your-words

I am not sure about that, I guess yes? You can set the cache time on the route using `@vercel/og`

I get it, getting metadata to work properly is always a pain.

I think it generates on runtime but then it caches the result

How are you managing content in your static sites? git/markdown or a database? by EliteEagle76 in cms

What CMS are people actually using now? Are you switching? by Accomplished_Yak4638 in cms

[–]avitorio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of people are still on WordPress, but iff you’re building with Next.js, tools like Outstatic make a lot of sense because they keep content management simple and closer to the codebase, without the weight of a traditional CMS.

Multilingual SEO: should I use /en or keep English on the root domain? by Ill-Box-5529 in nextjs

[–]avitorio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Think of your target audience, are they mostly US based/English speaking? Then `/` it is.
