Hi HN:

First of all, yes, I obviously know a wiki could serve this purpose, but I'm a fan of static sites due to performance, scale, and security.

I am looking at building a site that is essentially a wiki: it will accepts crowd sourced edits and page updates. However, I'd also like to manage content change requests via git and deploy via Netlify.

Ideally, the architecture I'd prefer is:

Content version controlled via GitHub

Deployment via Netlify or Github pages

External users could login to edit pages Google/Facebook/GitHub Oauth?

Edits are wiki-like: Public edit requests are possible via a wiki-like interface, but require approval

Edits appear behind the scenes as pull requests - it's possible to view change history via github

Is there anything out there like this? I've been checking out Gollum and netlify-cms, but I'm not entirely certain either of these really match what I would ideally like. Any suggestions?

I'm curious as to what platforms the HN community are using for external facing company blogs (to post news, opinion, marketing material, engineering posts etc). Obvious choices include Medium or the blogging features of a static site system (such as Jekyll + Netlify). What else?

In 2019, what blogging platforms are people using, and why?
