I'd prefer to use Vue and Gridsome/Nuxt static as a site base.</p> <p>So, there comes a problem: most of the solutions for headless CMS or CMS as a service lack ways to work with multiple heavy images (and noone will wish to ask user to resize their 20+ MP DSLR images by hand). When we talk about using git-based CMS like amazing <a href="https://forestry.io/">Forestry</a> or <a href="https://www.netlifycms.org/">Netlify CMS</a> there is little one could do about using a lot of images with auto resizing and stuff since Github has heavy limits on both Git LFS payload and traffic and Gitlab is being much more liberal in that things but still lacks Git LFS support in API for private repos.</p> <p>Is there any alternatives? Contentful? Self-hosted strapi or Ghost? Forget about using SSG and just use Wordpress or even ready made platform like Squarespace/Tilda?</p> <p>Share your experience.
