Blogging with a visual gui editor in webstudio

At a glance

The community members are discussing the best way to write blog articles using Webstudio, a tool for building websites, when the focus is typically on content management systems (CMS) for blogging. Some key points raised:

- Webstudio is for building, while CMS is for content management, including blogging.

- There are concerns about having a dedicated editor role for clients, as they are usually a different role from team members who work on design.

- The community members suggest that teams and roles will likely be a future feature in Webstudio, and for now, share links can be used to collaborate.

- There are discussions around using Notion pages as a visual editor, but concerns about performance and the need to implement caching solutions.

There is no explicitly marked answer in the provided information.

For people that are used to a visual GUI CMS for blogging like Wordpress has, what is the best way to write blog articles using Webstudio. Even when CMS integrations happen, how can we blog with a visual GUI editor?

Hmm... but will there be a dedicated editor role for clients at some point?

Teams and roles will most likely be a future feature. For now you can simply use share links to have team members work on same projects.

Maybe for the static content. But blog usually isn't static unless you only have a few posts.

Hmm... But clients aren't team members. That's a totally different role; usually, they only edit content, not design.

you would most likely not want them to edit any content, but content that is designed for editing by the customer, which is exactly the case for CMS

Was hoping there would be a way of using notion pages since the visual editor is quite good. The performance concerns seem reasonable. There seem to be some projects that cache the output though to make it usable but I don't know enough to implement something like that.

Maybe its too messy idk
