• The Future of Blockchain Project Funding and Open Source Sustainable Innovations

  Decades ago, open source projects were sustained almost exclusively by volunteer contributions and donations. Over time, these projects evolved to include corporate sponsorships and freemium models that have proven critical to the long-term success of platforms like WordPress and projects maintained by the Linux Foundation. In parallel, blockchain technology dramatically shifted the funding landscape with the... - Source: dev.to / 30 days ago

• Struggling to find the right CMS choice for an ecommerce project

  Even Strapi needs to be hosted somewhere, and that usually involves a recurring fee. I've had great success over the past 2 years building blogs using http://webiny.com, and because they get low traffic, I've only ever had 1 bill from AWS that was around 80 cents US. Source: almost 3 years ago

• I am looking for a (open-source) headless cms to use for small to medium client projects.

  Strapi is awesome, I've been a fan of the project since its early days. However, I've been closely watching Webiny too. It's easier to host because you don't have to worry about running Docker containers or installing MongoDB on your local machine. Instead you put it on your AWS account (can be done with a few clicks), define your content models once it's there and you then only pay for usage. http://webiny.com. Source: about 3 years ago

• What’s your top CMS choice?

  Yeah I hear you, SAAS CMS platforms can get prohibitively expensive really quickly after the initial free tier expires. I've found hosting Strapi (or similar) on Heroku has saved me the cost of keeping a server instance running, which usually would cost $5-10 per month. However, the most cost effective for me so far has been Webiny. It's serverless so you install it on AWS and typically don't pay as much (if... Source: about 3 years ago

• What should I use to build my new project?

  Otherwise if you want a framework to build on, there's Redwood (which works particularly well on Netlify and Vercel) or Webiny (for AWS, Azure and others). - Source: dev.to / over 3 years ago
