I am currently working on a simple CMS which just wraps Grape editor in a Sinatra backend. Before too long I'll make it public and I'll share a link here in case anyone is interested. I realized that it's not too difficult to use the demo app, you really just have to clone the repo then go to the The backend component isn't too tricky, I would say maybe like 2 days of work to make a whole CMS out of this. So hopefully I can save others a bit of time with my project. |

grapes.js looks really cool, but it is not intuitive at all to set up. I just want to self-host a version like the demo. Running behind a node server with the editor widgets and the ability to save. With the ability to enter an admin mode to allow editing(even basic HTTP auth is fine), and for other users to be able to just see the site without editing ability.
I don't think I'm alone in just wanting an out-the-box WYSIWYG website builder. I don't really want to spend a lot of time building the thing from scratch. Whatever features the demo has looks good enough for my needs.
As it stands, in order to use the demo you need to manually download a bunch of files from gh-pages branch and then I'm not even sure if there's anything there to save the website. I mean, the whole point of a visual website editor is that you can edit the website, save it, and view it.
