I’ve been searching for long on how to get this right. I think I have simple enough requirements, but have been complicating it without a reason.
Here is what I want
- WYSIWYG editor for easy writing
- Drafts
- Writing on mobile / tab / laptop
- Light website which loads decently fast
- Good search
The idea is that, If something comes to mind. Converting it to text & putting it out in the garden should be friction less.
Current setup
WordPress happens to tick all the boxes. Now I run wordpress on a 7$ instance on Digital Ocean.
It has
- A fantastic editor
- Support for drafts
- Insane collection of themes
- Great app to write & manage the website on the go (WordPress Jetpack)
- Good search
- Light website with cloudflare caching
