My site is currently setup with Gridsome and NetlifyCMS. NetlifyCMS isn't linked to netlify as far as I'm aware you can use it with other hosts if you want to I went with that just to try it up and it was very easy to get setup but it is quite basic on what you can do, but for just creating posts and nothing too complicated it will do the job fine. I'd not heard of Forestry before, but reading the docs looks good I might give it a go.
It's good to know that Gridsome and NetlifyCMS work well together, thanks for your feedback!
In your opinion, would the "quite basic" features be enough, content-wise, to populate a (small) tech blog? (code snippets, explanations and stuff like that, nothing too fancy).
Yep it would be fine for that there is a rich text editor if you prefer but I tend to write my posts in markdown. I haven't figured out how to style them quite as I'd like as Gridsome seems to remove default markdown styling but that's likely down to the way I've setup my blog up.
