What it does

Statix is a 100% free, open-source static CMS for React/Next.js. Unlike headless CMS platforms that trap you with api limits, media quotas, or user restrictions on their "free" tiers, Statix stores everything as local JSON in your Git repo. Why Statix? • No API limits, no user caps, no hidden fees • True content & code ownership • Zero-config setup with create-statix-cms • Lightweight UI integration with useStatix() Stop paying for dynamic limits on static sites. Keep it local.

A modern, Git-based headless CMS built with Next.js 16, React 19, and Tailwind CSS 4. Your content, your code, no vendor lock-in.

One npx command and the entire Next.js codebase is yours. Content lives in your GitHub, users in your Turso, media in your R2. No Statix server, no Statix bill, no Statix lock-in. my-cms/ ├── src/ │ ├── app/(statix)/ │ ├── statix/ # editor, fields, hooks │ ├── content/ # ui.json translations │ └── statix.config.ts # your schema ├── package.json └── .env.example 187 files · 0 hidden dependencies · yours Positioning Every other CMS makes one trade-off. Plotted on two axes that actually matter — how much code you own, and how deep the team features run. Three of the four live on the edges. One sits alone in the top-right. Every other CMS trades ownership for features, or features for…from statix-cms.vercel.app

    Hey hackers, OP here! I've been dipping in and out of this problem space for the last few years with many of my clients. Puck sits somewhere between an old-school WYSIWYG-powered CMS and headless one, allowing content teams to author content using real React components. Traditional CMS solutions were flexible but often resulted in page that completely broke the brand guidelines. Headless CMS solutions are a fantastic way of controlling brand by restricting UI changes to developers, but makes layout changes restrictive and slow as developers often need to get involved. Puck provides a visual…

    I'm excited to finally launch Outstatic, an open source static website CMS that doesn't require a complicated setup or signing up to a third-party service! You can access the documentation here: Outstatic Documentation. I invite you to start by deploying our example blog to Vercel and giving it a try. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised at how easy and fun it is to use Outstatic. Please, let me know what you think. This is the first public version of the project and all feedback is welcome. If you dig the project feel free to leave a star on Github. I appreciate your support!

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  • Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
