I've finally released public beta of my latest project - Vrite - CMS for technical (programming) content. It's also open-source now, so you can have a look on GitHub. About 2 weeks late, but still excited for working on this 😅

Thanks a lot, Michael! Indeed it feels good to finish something (as opposed to just starting things).
