Hello World!

Today I finished propping up wit-cms from the provided bootstrap configuration.

I was originally going to have a fancy React frontend (based on my existing boilerplate), but found the included templates/stylesheets to be perfectly sufficient for my purposes.

The one piece I have not been able to figure out (which is supported per the docs), is the seeming lack of homepage. Indeed, per the docs:

// 302 redirect '/' to this page
pages: {
  home: '/about-me'
},

...But I am seeing no such redirect, so I am simply handling this case myself in nginx.

Aside from that, I am quite pleased with the simplicity of wit-cms. I was previously recommended Jekyll; Wit seems to be comparable in simplicity and ease-of-use, but built for an Express backend. I would recommend anyone looking for basic CMS functionality check it out.
