  • Front Matter CMS - a bit different approach to content management
    But what if I tell you that there is a CMS that will transform your Visual Studio Code into a proper CMS with content and media management, taxonomies, and more? Say hello to Front Matter CMS. - Source: dev.to / 7 months ago
  • Different flavors of content management
    But, when your CMS is based on Markdown files, you can use whatever editor you want. For example, if you use Nuxt as your CMS, everyone can choose which editor they prefer. It can be Visual Studio Code, FrontMatter CMS, or maybe Nuxt Studio. Everyone can pick the app they like the most. - Source: dev.to / 8 months ago
  • My Blog Setup and Writing Process
    Have you looked at https://frontmatter.codes/ as a CMS in VSCode? It's really nice to work with for Hugo sites. Source: over 1 year ago
  • What is the best content management system (CMS) for hugo ?
    Use GitLab Web IDE and learn Markdown. It is free, open source and the mobile experience is decent. From there, take a look at https://frontmatter.codes/ in GitPod.io or locally in VSCode, not great on mobile but very powerful, free and open source. I also like https://cloudcannon.com which isn't free or open source, but it is an excellent live editing CMS for Hugo and the mobile experience is really nice. Source: over 1 year ago
  • Hugo on Docker
    You might take a look at GitPod.io as you can run it in the browser, integrated with your Git repo and even has a nice CMS option https://frontmatter.codes You can see more about it and some other ideas here. https://youtu.be/Z1LDbXMst-Y. Source: over 1 year ago
  • What are the weirdest CMS you've seen used to host content?
    As it turns out VSCode can be insanely powerful if one sets it up carefully. The Front Matter extension can be enough in itself to manage a blog. The power tools extension can do useful stuff, like it can copy the formatted path of a changed image to clipboard which allows the client to just copy an image to a folder and press ctrl+v anywhere in a markdown file to paste the image there in markdown format.

  • Freelancers, who are the customers of static websites?
    In the case of Hugo, for example, you can also use https://frontmatter.codes if you want to make content creation and management a bit more convenient. For other generators there will probably be similar tools. Source: about 2 years ago
  • What are you guys using to blog?
    Those who use VS Code and want to manage the content more conveniently, can have a look at https://frontmatter.codes. This tool also supports other generators for static web pages. Source: about 2 years ago
  • Migrating from Forestry CMS
    There is also this project. https://frontmatter.codes/ which isn't the same as Cloud Cannon in terms of feature parity, but does provide a good set of tools for managing Content, Media and Data. Source: about 2 years ago
  • CMS for HTML CSS blog site
    And those who want to conveniently manage the content can take a look at https://frontmatter.codes. Source: over 2 years ago
  • Anybody using the VSCode extension Front Matter (with Hugo)?
