Very cool, fills a niche. Could you put a link to the demo right in the README.md? It's hard to click through on mobile

> fills a niche
theres a lot of git based CMSes out there. what is the niche you perceive? (not being critical just want to see what you see)

I have used hugo both dircetly and also via Netlify hosting.
Maintaining the side on a PC became tedious.
Netlify made life easier by emoving dependency on a local machine and offering an online CMS -- but the UX of editing is very irksome and not conducive to writing.
There were a few nagging bugs in the Netlify CMS editor -- like cursor always jumping to end of line if you are trying to edit in middle of a line. I finnaly fixed this bug by spending 30 mintes with Claude Code.
But yeah -- I have been meaning to build my own online CMS to allow frictionless editing and blog posting. Will either use this or take some inspiration from this for sure. Good work - looks nice!
i did a bit of work on netlifycms, and am a bit disappointed that decapcms's website doesnt seem to acknowledge that history.

Not to nickpick, but it seems GitHub centric. Is there a way it could be used simply with git (running on a VPS, on the user space, that is, accessed via SSH)?

just curious, is there even a need for that? It's good for learning though

You could have told your LLM to NOT use node/js/npm and made the thing far more secure from day one. Npm is a security nightmare.
Also you say it’s git-based but it depends on GitHub. GitHub is not git. What if I want to use another git forge or god forbid a local repo?
I have a similar thing but it doesn’t assume GitHub and is coded in Python (by hand, it’s like 100 lines of Python and flask). Serves my needs! Simple and dumb.

This is pretty simple and dumb :-)
