This week we were joined by Bastian Allgeier. Bastian created and maintains Kirby, a file-based CMS. We take a deep dive into Kirby, other CMSs, and more.
We talked about (roughly in order):
News’n’Links’n’Drama:
- 17:25 Booking.com: Would You Like Fries With That?
Q & A:
- 26:38 I’m a part of the CSS-Tricks forum where you can usually find me recommending Kirby to just about anyone struggling with WordPress. My first question is, was WordPress an inspiration for what NOT to do when building a CMS? Secondly, when can we expect V2 of Kirby to be released?
- 48:44 I was looking for a CMS to use for client sites, and I came across PyroCMS. What are your thoughts on PyroCMS?
- 51:33 I am a front end developer in the initial planning of a blogging site and am feeling a little overwhelmed with CMS options. Is WordPress still king, or is it worth it to look at an up and coming CMS like Ghost?
