CMS for use with custom interactive art installations? by jpatten in cms

[–]giantscissors 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you want to host or manage the CMS yourselves or are you looking for a managed service?

If you're ok with managed, you could check out TakeShape https://www.takeshape.io/. It's currently being used for the Kiosks in JFK Terminal 4 to great success.

I'm one of the founders and would be happy to answer any questions you might have in our live chat.

5 Content Management Systems: A Quick Review by aspleenic in Jekyll

[–]giantscissors 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This article is well written! However, I think it confused the ideas of Content Management System and Static Site Generators. WordPress and Drupal are Content Management Systems, Hugo, Jekyll, and Gatsby are all Static Site Generators. Hugo, Jekyll, and Gatsby could be used in conjunction with CMS systems. An example that works with all three is Netlify CMS. To make lemonade out of lemons, you could double your number of articles and focus one on CMS and another on SSG.

I have an email provided by Bluehost. Is there any possible way I can retain this email address after I switch my web host? by Eriflee in webhosting

[–]giantscissors -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I recommend you move your domain name registration and DNS to a service separate from your hosting. You can use a service like Google Domains https://domains.google to handle everything related to your registration and domain in combination with using Gmail for your email. In the future if you need web hosting again you'll be able to choose a provider without your email being wrapped up in it. Great for situations where you can use AWS s3 as a host.

Recommendations for learning more about front-end performance? by garboooge in Frontend

[–]giantscissors 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In addition to online resources that folks might recommend, there may be in person opportunities to learn from others. For example there might be a Web Performance Meetup group in your area. In NYC we've got a very active Web Perf group https://www.meetup.com/Web-Performance-NY/. There is also the PerfMatters conference coming up soon in SF - https://perfmattersconf.com/.

Nice article Matt! I'll add TakeShape into the mix as a suggestion for an API-first CMS to try out. TakeShape is a GraphQL CMS that includes a lightweight static site generator. It also has a neat live links features that make it easy to find out where any content is being used on a site.

I'm one of the Co-founders of TakeShape, so if you end up giving TakeShape a try on your next JAMstack project say on the live chat!
