Are we at the point that creating and editing a page in a JAM stack site is as easy as WordPress for non-technical users?

Not a snarky or leading question, I honestly don’t know. I use Hugo for my own internal design things, because I want partials and such, but I have no idea where the ecosystem is at for the “we need a poli-sci intern to copyedit this” use case.




Maybe, for basic use cases. I use Forestry as a CMS for my Jekyll site. I only have two templates: page and blog post.


Does a user need to create a page entire?

Used be that we had writers, editors, type setters, printers and book-binders, and I think the output was more professional.

I think there’s still a case for the non-technical users just writing the words, and keeping away from the presentation and delivery.


There are already solutions for this, like Stackbit and Publii.
