• Local Journalism Is How Democracy Shows Up Close to Home

  Digital production has lowered the cost, and the Ghost platform in particular is a great value for small publishers, bundling together the blog, newsletter and subscriptions in one package, even now including ActivityPub federation. And Ghost themselves a non-profit org that doesn't mark up the Stripe transaction fees! One local news outlet recently switched to that, saving about %5 on Patreon fees and a second is... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Ask HN: Looking for Headless CMS Recommendation

  If you're hell-bent on headless, I can personally recommend 11ty (https://www.11ty.dev/) and hugo (https://gohugo.io/). That said, for non-technical admins, you probably want a user interface. For that, Ghost (https://ghost.org/) and Grav (https://getgrav.org/). Or Wordpress! - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

  They should provide an option to move to https://ghost.org/. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Build an analytics agent to analyze your Ghost blog traffic with the Vercel AI SDK and Tinybird

  In this post, I'll show you how to build an agent with sufficient contextual understanding of underlying analytics data - and the tools to query it - so that you can have a chat with your data (any data!). Specifically, I'll build a simple analytics agent for a blog - hosted on the open-source publishing platform Ghost. The agent will tell us which content is performing the best, and why. - Source: dev.to / about 1 year ago

• Ask HN: It's 2024. What would be your ideal blogging service?

  Off the top of my head… Tools for transclusion, inserting parts of other docs and rich references to them: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transclusion i.e. I refer to lobste.rs and Hacker news stories in posts like this: https://www.oilshell.org/blog/2021/04/build-ci-comments.html I wrote a bit of (offline) JavaScript to do it, but I could see it being expanded. I find it makes the posts more like a conversation... - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

• Show HN: Primo – a visual CMS with Svelte blocks, a code editor, and SSG

  Looks like that's using lit-html templates inside Svelte, but not any custom elements. Web components would be good because they're an interface that Primo could work with without relying on specific implementation details. They're also encapsulated with shadow DOM, and support interoperable composition (components can have child elements made from any other frameworks or library). So you could still build blocks... - Source: Hacker News / about 3 years ago

• BlockSuite: An open-source Notion-like editor with multiplayer support

  Any chance this might interact with Block Protocol in any way? https://blockprotocol.org/ The obvious immediate benefit to this would be native editing of Wordpress blocks for your website. But if this became standardized and usable both locally and on the web, it could open up all sorts of interesting use cases. - Source: Hacker News / about 3 years ago

• A quick analogy for those still finding fediverse, lemmy, mastodon stuff confusing

  I think the “servers” should be abstracted away from the user. Communities should be able to exist seamlessly across multiple servers, and the user shouldn’t need to know what servers a community is on. They should just be able to go to one website and access the entirety of the fediverse. Activities should adopt something similar to the Block protocol (https://blockprotocol.org/) so they can specify how they... Source: about 3 years ago

• Are they going to keep going with Gutemberg ?

  The universal block thing...that's actually not too far from what is happening. WP didn't invent blocks, they adopted the Blocks Protocol. It's slow moving, with only a couple CMS's supporting it at the moment, but Drupal, Github, and Figma are planned to implement it as well. The idea being to enable a web standard for blocks that makes then platform agnostic. Use them anywhere on the web you like. Source: about 3 years ago
