Making websites is easy by Matjaz - where does flat-file cms fit in?

Does Pinegrow have any plans to add a flat-file cms to it’s repertoire?

Good question.

I also previously mentioned and hinted how it would be nice to integrate a few popular Flat File CMS systems directly into Pinegrow.

PS: Their later comment about including other CMS’s reminded me of the discussion of the many Flat File CMS solutions which exist. Most could be implemented with little work for allowing drag and drop much like the newly capable Wordpress Smart Actions, for generating editible regions, etc., for any chosen CMS’s.

One such example of this could be BlocsApp (mac app), which makes it easy to develop for the CMS’s it supports by including the setups and hooks for the user to define the appropriate content for each CMS.

CMS – Blocs – User Documents
Content Management Systems – Blocs – User Documents

For many clients, using simple online editor controls as demonstrated and available from numerous Flat File CMS solutions offers a cleaner approach for clients to edit sites -vs- the integrated scaled back Pinegrow CMS option being offered as an app by Pinegrow.

A few integrated popular Flat File CMS options would be advantages for the app and marketing opportunities regarding CMS solutions and Pinegrow. I had considered putting forth a proper Feature Request thread in the past about it, but have rather given up on those both big and small.
