Rolling Out Our Simple, Elegant CMS
Creative Commons Attribution-No Derivative Works 4.0
THE other night we started explaining where the Web had gone wrong and the role of "big CMS" (bloated content management systems) in it, along with various large frameworks, some of which get integrated into the CMS "ecosystem" (overpopulated chaos).
"With various things such as Gemini, IPFS and the videos (gallery of them) in recent years we've increasingly adopted static pages. That just makes practical sense."In recent years we were drowning in complexity and so-called 'technical debt'. We looked for a way out and after a lot of research (and persistent growing pains) we decided to write some code to suit our needs, and by doing so we can keep it minimal and lightweight. The backend was screaming all day long, particularly due to the databases (sans caching) and serving static pages makes sense when the stories aren't customised or tailored to visitors. There's a lot of room for improvement.
The above video is the first one that shows a system we might later adopt here in Techrights. At the moment we develop and test it for Tux Machines, but a lot can be generalised and made to work on any site. With various things such as Gemini, IPFS and the videos (gallery of them) in recent years we've increasingly adopted static pages. That just makes practical sense. ⬆
