Might want to check out Kirby cms - sounds like you’ve vibe coded your way to something similar but Kirby will have more niceities.


+1 on Kirby. It brought back fun in working on projects with CMS as a requirement. The cost for a license is easily justified when I calculate working hours and nuisances that would come with Wordpress.

For now I didn't find the comparably tiny plugin ecosystem to be a problem. It's well documented and lets me write missing functionality quickly.

My first encounter with it was because a wordpress project annoyed me so much I started to look around for alternatives. I took the project as a real-world example to take a look at Kirby and rebuild the site in an afternoon.


Yeah likewise. Most of the things you’d need a plugin for in WordPress are already part of the core system, things you need are easy to extend.

I’m doing some really powerful stuff with the custom CLI commands, highly recommend the YouTube video on it. Makes bulk import / api enrichment and other things a breeze.

Doesn't sound too nice


The MIT license comes with pretty much the same sort of thing at the end, and in all-caps at that.


Disclaiming warranty and indemnification are different things.


Kirby rocks. It's so much better designed than WordPress.


Not open source though.


Yes it is. You can view it on GitHub?

It’s licensed, and I’m happy to pay for a professional sustainable solution.


I'm now a 15'' Air user after always being pro. I notice no difference in performance but enjoy the lighter form factor and damn does it run cool compared to the pro.

Replacing my iPhone was a nothing burger of choice, on paper the iPhone 15 pro was the best feature set for value vs buying a new iPhone 17, but Apple know that so don't sell the older models directly when the new models come out.

There's really limited impactful innovation when you get into the details.


time to delete my account.


I agree wholeheartedly, seems to be a symptom of bureaucracy. Rules upon rules that end up as the status quo without consolidation and a good refactor.


Is hard to talk to the engineer, I can't select him, stuck between the base and a solar panel.


Just noticed the wind farms even have the individual units ( I assume ) and their interconnections mapped?!

Would show that off and zoom into them when selecting them from the list view!


That's correct, it's using data from Open Infrastructure Map which is itself based on OpenStreetMap data. That's a good idea to zoom in further to show them off a bit more.


FAQ also mentions it's only wind, so took me a while to notice :)

Would be nice to have a definition of 'Turn-up' and 'Curtailment' in that FAQ for us non grid savvy visitors.

Works great though, well done.


Ah yeah the FAQ is very out of date and in need of a full rewrite. I'll get to that eventually. And you're right, I'll make sure to add some sort of glossary and perhaps also explain things better in-situ.


Ahhhh. It happily re-wrote the example paper to be from Google AI and added references that supported that falsehood.

Slop science papers is just what the world needs.


Kirby has ticked the boxes for me, total control of the admin interface.

Block fields like ACF flexible layouts. Modern and fast with total control of the frontend.

Has been fun to switch and fast.


If you’re comfortable with php writing an importer for Kirby is simple, checkout their cli YouTube video. Nice modern api and easy to import content. Being flat file if there’s a mistake, just delete the content folder and import again!
