Nice! It’s great to have more open source platforms in the CRM space. This feels a lot like Directus [0] except that the latter is a more general data platform you build upon. They have a 100 Apps in 100 hours playlist where they build sample apps on top on Directus, even a simple CRM [1]. [0] https://directus.io/ [1] https://youtu.be/tTrBn9Wvko0?si=IoqQ7o7Y8czfxB31.

I don’t know, it’s something I’ve wanted many times. Recently I discovered https://directus.io/ which comes pretty close and it’s open source.

I using Directus CMS on several projects with pretty complicated flows, api extensions etc. probably there will be some work if you move. I liked Directus is because it’s standard SQL I can always move my DB and documents to another solution. I don’t use their hosted solution but they have an unlimited offering for $100 / month.

Along those lines, I’ve been happy with Directus as a backend for my little blog.

Have you looked at Directus? I’m not sure exactly what your needs are (sorry if I’ve misunderstood). I used it for my most recent project as the backend for data entry/queries/administration. It supports MySQL, but admins don’t need to know anything about SQL to do complex queries/filters/CSV exports from the Directus UI.

It depends on your skillsets, but I’d highly recommend https://directus.io/ especially if you need “slickness” to raise money otherwise try a pyhat stack if you hate javascript.

One of our DevRel initiatives at Directus is constantly improving our documentation. As a small team with finite time and resources, we rely a lot on user feedback to help guide our writing efforts. But we were missing the most important bit there – your feedback.

The admin is extremely unacceptable for anything beyond trivial borderline trivial use cases, and the modifications you’d have to make are just awful especially the more interactive something needs to be. The extremely tight integration between models and the modeladmin is a blessing and curse. The people who like Django,also tend to overload it to do everything. This makes sense at small companies. The only place…

I initially looked into CMS’s like Strapi and Directus to possibly handle my admin UI + API all at once. I haven’t found anything that looks like it can do this yet, but I’d be very happy to be proven wrong. I would prefer it to be based in .NET or Node.js since I am more familiar with those, but there’s no reason I couldn’t do PHP either.

I moved all my work to https://directus.io self-installs from wordpress. It’s 100% headless, so if you want a frontend, you’ll have to build it yourself. It has a good, typescript supported SDK that allows you to write queries as JSON objects.

Maybee it’s overkill for a simple block, but Directus sounds like a decent choice if you want to get away from Strapi. https://directus.io/.

If the answer is yes, I’ve been in the same boat recently, while creating a personal site. I liked the hassle free wordpress admin area + custom fields but hated the forceful way of how wordpress does some things + links data. So I looked over multiple ways of changing wordpress with something, else, like a headless CMS. After many tries & retries, I managed to enjoy working with directus . It has the same…

My sites are “built” offline and deployed 100% static. Astro is my current favorite for this. Nuxt3 is another that I like to use. When I need a CMS, I like Directus – I have my own self-hosted instance on DigitalOcean.
