Example app using Netlify CMS
Netlify CMS is an open source content management system for your Git workflow that enables you to provide editors with a friendly UI and intuitive workflows. You can use it with any static site generator to create faster, more flexible web projects. Content is stored in your Git repository alongside your code for easier versioning, multi-channel publishing, and the option to handle content updates directly in Git.

How it works
Sites take its content from markdown files in /content
. Two of pages (home

Blog component loads all posts (during build!) and lists them out How to load multiple md files
Posts are separate static sites thanks to dynamically created export map. I took inspiration on how to do it from here
