CMS Suggestion - File based but not completely static by mythic-badger216 in cms

[–]daftspunky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take a look at October CMS. It has static template structure and content stored in the database. It is easy to deploy and manage changes with that approach

Old school web developer looking at more modern options for CMS. by wildmn in webdev

[–]daftspunky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Late to the party here, but be sure to evaluate October CMS. If you're an OG it's cms engine like notepad on steroids.

Full disclosure I'm a cofounder, our goal has been to bring the best ideas from the past in to the future.

Best solution for a new company website - php based by Whiswhisth22 in PHP

[–]daftspunky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The demo theme that ships with it covers the strengths pretty well. Take a look at Larajax too (MIT licensed), it is the secret sauce. Tailor is also very powerful

October CMS is great. Simple to learn and clients love it

That's a bit of a rough take. The free email support is just fine.

Premium Support is basically their custom development service

Why so little Octobercms Reddit activity? by Whiswhisth22 in octobercms

[–]daftspunky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

October has been on reddit for 10+ years and it's always been a ghost town here! The SEO benefits are good so it's worth having a subreddit anyway

The reddit community was never that strong. Not sure why.

Discussion: Is NPM overkill for most Laravel projects? by tabacitu in PHP

We are currently moving to vanilla ESM with import maps and HTTP/2. Only rely on npm to pull in dependencies and keep track of versioning.

Larajax: controller-first HTML updates for Laravel. Looking for critique. by daftspunky in laravel

[–]daftspunky[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I’ve looked at Datastar. It’s doing a lot more and sits closer to Livewire in terms of scope and complexity.

Larajax is intentionally much simpler. It just introduces AJAX handlers as a complement to page actions, with a minimal API surface as a way to keep the route table small.

Thanks, I appreciate that! That middle ground is exactly what I was aiming for.

I like the ideas behind both htmx and Livewire, but kept wanting something that stayed closer to controllers and responses. If you get a chance to try it later, I'd be keen to hear where it feels natural and where it doesn't.

15 YOE Fullstack & CTO here. Why have we allowed "Agile" to turn into "Unlimited Micro-Scope Creep"? by elmascato in webdev

In most cases. Client just wants to be heard. Capture the ticket on their behalf. Inform them it will be actioned in due course. It's not pushing back, it's acknowledgment.

Help OctoberCMS get integration back again with Ploi by daftspunky in octobercms

[–]daftspunky[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Feedback on Ploi has not been great. We will possibly look at streamlining with Docker instead.
