Been working on this CMS for some time now: https://val.build
Just added tanstack support. Approaching v1 very soon.

It would be cool if the future was a standard fairphone like module system where you could replace the model chip when you felt like it without having to shell out 1-2k $$$s for a new phone

Lots of PRs merged these last weeks and looking forward to getting native tanstack start integration finished.

As a fellow Norwegian and nerd I have always wanted to be better at Nynorsk. Maybe this is what I need to get better at it!

The Google Gemini deal is one of the reasons I think it is likely since Gemini works pretty local hw...

This has been my theory for a while: during this autumn Apple will release a version of Apple Intelligence that runs locally and works better than ChatGPT. They will do this because 1) they do not have an offering in AI yet 2) they have amazing hardware that even now almost can pull it off on open models and this will not be possible to replicate on android for a long time (presumably)
This will crush OpenAI.
Note: I am not talking about coding here - it will take a while longer but when it is optimized to the bone and llms output has stabilized, you will be running that too on local hardware. Cost will come down for Claude and friends too but why pay 5 when you can have it for free?

Should add: you can read more docs here: https://val.build/docs/create

Awesome feedback! Will update the docs!
The content is TS files. You can chose which repo GitHub you want to synchronize to - monorepo also works!

Cool! We also build client-server sync for our local-first CMS:
https://github.com/valbuild/val
Just as your docsync, it has to both guarantee order and sync to multiple types of servers (your own computer for local dev, cloud service in prod).
Base format is rfc 6902 json patches.
Read the spec sheet and it is very similar :)

Wanted to submit my CMS, Val, but there's no CMS category yet?
I tried to create a category here if it is useful for others as well: https://european-alternatives.eu/admin/category-votes/3daefd...
Oh, and here's the product page: https://val.build
GitHub is here: https://github.com/valbuild/val

I am working on the «ultimate dev ex» CMS: https://val.build/docs
GitHub: https://github.com/valbuild/val

What sets it apart is that it 1) stores content in TS / JS files 2) is a fully fledged CMs. It is designed to be nice to work with from the start a project (and the structure of your app changes all the time) -> when everyone works on individual PRs -> to the end when the project is decommissioned.
It needs no cloud APIs, no DBs nor caching. No query language to learn. No sign up to get started. It is fully TypeSafe and needs no type generation. You can rename and refactor content from you IDE. It works amazingly with Cursor and friends (local content and schema + strong typesafty + validation)
Currently reqs are: Nextjs and GitHub.
APIs are pretty stable. UI is in the process of a revamp. Will do a proper show hn some time in the near future.

> It's entirely possible that we do become obsolete for a wide variety of programming domains. That's simply a reality…
It is not a reality since it has not happen. In the real world it has not happened.
There is no reason to believe that the current rate of progress will continue. Intelligence is not like the weaving machines. A software engineer is not a human calculator.
