Ah this must have been it! Thanks!!
I believe the category name is 'headless CMS' and you're looking for SaaS, not SASS. https://www.contentful.com/ isn't new but they do regular job ads in the who-is-hiring so you might have seen them there. Their website seems to market to website owners while https://forestry.io/ seems to market to developers.
Ah yes- thanks! I appreciate the clarification- and I edited my typo. I was imagining something more lightweight than your average headless CMS, but upon further consideration, what I'm looking for certainly lands under that category nonetheless.
Much appreciated!
Much appreciated!
The pitch was- a hosted platform to store a websites "copy" text. The text is then easily editable via some WYSIWYG by clients on the SASS's website, then consumed by the customers website via API.
I'm currently feeling a bit annoyed by constant requests to change small bits of copy. If I could just send my clients a link and let them edit the copy directly without involving me, that would be great!
Ideally the service would be able to shoot a webhook to github to trigger a re-build to keep the SSG'd pages up-to-date.
Can anyone recall a similar service?
Netlify CMS would likely be great, but it is more than I need for something this simple. I have most of my websites hosted on Vercel anyways. I've used a great git-based CMS called frontaid.io before - but I'm having issues with it and am curious about other options, which reminded me of that Show HN.
Thanks in advance!
