   Very generous free plan

   The free plan of Contentful is generous enough to allow us to run a successful technology blog without having to pay for any overheads to run it. We used them as an alternative to the previously used Ghost. We have experienced a lot of growth since this migration.

• Pre ordered the Premium edition of armored Core 6

  It's their payment processing, the inspect browser tool pulls up a bad connection with their payment system (bigcommerce.com). It's some amateur hour shenanigans. Source: 12 months ago

• Possible scam

  Looks nothing like bigcommerce.com IMHO. Crappy graphics, site looks like it was put together by a 5 year old child. Source: over 2 years ago

• What's Your Preferred Platform?

  But there are many alternatives I saw some people selling nice on ecwid.com as well and bigcommerce.com have more specific B2B options. Source: about 3 years ago

• My blog post workflow

  Next, I’ll copy and paste the draft text to my CMS. I’ve been using Contentful since working there in 2021. I use Rich Text rather than Markdown for my posts and what’s great about this is that copying and pasting from Notion preserves hyperlinks and formatting. If I’m including anything else like code samples, images and other embedded media, I add those as separate linked entries manually whilst working through... - Source: dev.to / about 2 months ago

• How to Style Markdown in Next.JS Using React-Markdown and SASS

  If you have a blog or website with articles or long text documents, markdown is your friend. It makes authoring documents so much easier and more intuitive than straight HTML. Markdown has a far smaller learning curve than HTML and can easily be taught to non-tech-savvy writers. Markdown editors are also built-in to headless CMSs like Contentful. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

• Looking to Create a Wordpress Style Website with Python / Flask

  It depends on the requirements, but this might actually call for a headless CMS like Forestry.io or Contentful coupled with a Static Site Generator like Hugo. The CMS will manage users/permissions/data hierarchy and provide a simple frontend for users to add content, lay out pages, etc. And then when they save a change, the SSG will re-run and render everything to static HTML/CSS/JS.

• How to Create a Blog Using Next.js and Contentful CMS

  Contentful is a headless content management system (CMS). Headless simply means there is no front-end to display the content to the consumer. It's basically a database, but much easier to setup and maintain than a traditional relational database. Contentful provides a very easy-to-use API for fetching and managing content. They also support GraphQL queries if you're into that. - Source: dev.to / almost 2 years ago

• Test Post Dev To

  Contentful has become my favorite Headless CMS. I use it to generate static web pages, this blog, and storing other forms of data, such as user profiles. - Source: dev.to / almost 2 years ago
