thanks! Just corrected :D

Thanks, any feedback on the tool would be highly appreciated!

That's a really good point. Agreed that we should perfect one solution before extending to other ones. We might start with Nuxt as weweb mainly works with vue.js at the moment. We'll let the community know on our public roadmap:

yes, actually a good portion of the users using Airtable asked for it, but it means that we might develop a back-end dedicated to this. We are exploring it at the moment. I sent a message to Colin to discuss the Clerk integration ;)

looks like it could be possible :) I just sent you a message so we can discuss it further!

Well the good news is that we already have the Strapi integration! You can try it right away if you'd like :) As for the hosting, right now people ask us directly and we send them their static files, later people will just have to clic

Agreed, they are building a really great product. We are (at this stage) still very different though: with weweb, you can build full layouts with various elements and manage the CSS of every single element directly from a GUI in a no-code e

Good question. Wordpress is number 1. It is the biggest site builder that has a GUI for marketers and that's open to developers. Only, it is in PHP, so we don't directly compete with them. Webflow, Squarespace and the likes are no

Currently it is not available but that's the next feature on the list! We are thinking about integrating Firebase and https://supabase.io/ to start with. We are also taking a look at the possibility to manage all the u

To start with Stackbit I believe you need to start with one of their themes and stackbit would be added on top of it. While you can start from a blank page in our tool. In their editor, the customization possibilities are limited in no-code

I understand. When you say self-hosted you are talking about the websites generated or the full app?

On the previous version of our website we actually dedicated the home page to marketers and had a link in the nav called "For Developers". The for developers page started to rank on google on some requests like "visual builde

no unfortunately the editor supports only Chromium based browsers but we are planning to expand support to other browser engines as we grow :)

I discussed this with the guys at Vercel a few weeks ago, this is definitely something we'll look into when we improve our React support. We'll also enable a one click deployment to Vercel so you can do a Next SSR + deployment on

oh wow, thank you. You are comparing us with giants and I feel we still have a lot of work to do on the editor to catch up with them. But we are working hard to ship improvements fast! Feedback are always welcomed, that's how we improv

correct! It should be working now :)

yes they are exportable, but it is on a on-demand basis. Not so many users asked for it yet, so we didn't build this feature in self-service but it is in our backlog. We want to make sure anyone can deploy the static files on their own

good luck to you too!

yay! good luck with webase, good vibes in the name too :D

cool that you felt there should be a solution to this problem too. Let us know what you think about the tool, I'd happily share point of views on how to solve this problem.

by raphael-gold 6y ago
cool, great feedback. We'll look into implementing bandwidth restriction instead of page view, I had the same conversation with an agency yesterday and they were leaning toward your point of view.

oh yes, we will release a native integration soon, in the meantime here is how to add a google font in your site: https://www.loom.com/share/6d2156f99f024362a4286f648d255c7b

great question! From my perspective, stackbit is made for large corporates willing to add a no-code layer above an existing Jamstack site. This provides additional customization option to marketers compared to a headless CMS only. Our appro

Yes! Following your comment I just created a new page for that (:D), you can sign up here: https://www.weweb.io/partner-program/

Absolutely, the Jamstack ecosystem is just beginning.

Yes that makes sense. Though, it would be hard to apply edits limits because the number of edits can vary greatly, independently from the purchasing power of a customer (for example a startup would change it's home page every other day
