Ask HN: Idea for serverless Git CMS with backblaze image host

1 points by supernihil 3 years ago · 0 comments · 1 min read


i have been asked by a small music venue to see if i could simplify their drupal install

since i dont know php, and since the website is mostly just a bunch of bloglike posts with events, i thought it would make a good candidate for a static page

THAT is until i figured out the backcatalog of posts going back to 2011 with huge image assets.

so i came up with this plan: https://github.com/sloev/research-into-serverless-git-based-cms/blob/main/README.md

which roughly is to create two repos: one repo for a single file cms in the form of a cloudflare worker that does ultra simple access control together with image upload (presigned backblaze urls) and form submit (musicevents new/updated) as json

another repo for keeping the layout plus all the music events json etc this repo can be public andwill build static html on each push

my question is : "is this gonna make the site more maintainable in the future?"

currently they have no person responsible for the website s it has to be easy to get into and maintain for an occational dev
