Current encryption standard would become obsolete over night, internet/network connectivity would become insecure.

This would lead to a complete chaos, until we update our security standards.

Thanks @kojeovo!

Contentful, from my understanding, is a good headless CMS, but does not allow a product team or a marketing team to manage the design/layout of new pages. Basically I would still need an engineer to implement the structure of the page, create the style, etc...

Correct, Contentful is a CMS.

Question for you though: why would you want product/marketing people feebly attempting to create new pages/layouts with some tool when you could just have a React engineer code up whatever they design with ease? I mean I get it, graphic designers and business analysts are cheaper than engineers, but if it takes them 2-3x as long (or more) to do the same job are you really saving any money?

Thanks for taking the time @comis, this is a valid question.

My assumptions are the following:

1. Dev cost is not only the time spent by the Dev team but, planning, project management, back and forth between tech and the different stakeholders. On top of that, you can add deployment cost, QA, etc...

2. Miss-opportunity cost, I feel like there is a trade-off between developing core features and supporting features (marketing, sales static pages) and that on a competitive market, most of the time, supporting features are not being prioritized due to a lack of tech resource.

3. Finally, small initiatives have a huge overhead for marketing and sales teams, if adding a drop-down to a form requires to create a ticket, ask the product team to spec it, design it, and add it to a Sprint,... Then, the drop-down will probably seat there until it becomes a critical issue or until it can be bundled with other small tickets. Which might never happen...

This is basically to avoid all of this that I'm looking for a CMS to embed in our existing site.

Thanks,

Regarding Expo specifically: >>> I have to write bash scripts to create js files. This hurts my brain. There is an issue on Expo's Github about env management https://github.com/expo/expo/issues/83

Now on a more general use case, I guess there are two types of applications: - Client-side (like Expo): I would not store any "secret" for security purposes, just configuration. You seem to use JS for your client-side so use dotenv packages (https://www.npmjs.com/package/dotenv, https://www.npmjs.com/package/dotenv-webpack, etc...)

- Server-side: Depending on your environment, CI, hosting you might have a different solution, sadly not any one-fits-all solution to my knowledge. Heroku provides a pretty straight forward solution, on my production environment I use a configuration management, Chef's Data Bag but you could as well use a service discovery like Consul, Zookeeper, Etcd, etc...

I hope this is a bit helpful.

Thanks @romanovcode!

This is indeed hard/impossible to implement this routing logic on a SPA... Also I would lose common header, footer and style in general.

I think this is why most people are using a blog.xxxx.tld with a WordPress, basically to save them the headache.

On the other side, I'm looking at SEO and I wonder if splitting my domain authority between two subdomain is the way to go.

Thanks @simplecto!

I did not know about this directory. I have looked at Strapi in the past, this is indeed a great tool, but I'm looking for a tool that does not need a tech team to build the front end piece (the head) of the CMS.

Ideally, I'm looking for some kind of tool or SaaS to build content and a custom UI at the same time (WebFlow like but embedded in my site).

You are welcome! You might also look at Microsoft powerapps, bubble.io, or ionicframework?

bubble.io seems like a good match in term of the editor, I hope this can be embedded in an existing site, I'll give it a try ;)

Thanks!

I was surprised this morning when I saw this bus in the streets of NYC. https://ibb.co/bNOJ8p

Is this even something that is legal to use a CC Creative content and make it your own company brand?

Thanks,

Unlike copyright, you must actively protect a trademark or you lose the rights. If W3C is not legally challenging the Superbus, they will lose trademark claims for the html5 logo.

It's not clear if the html5 logos is W3C trademark. They dont' list it anywhere as such and provide very permissive license.

Thanks for the answer
