Make your own Dev.to CMS livestream - Part 1
swyx 2020-03-27
As someone who uses Dev.to as a headless CMS, I feel a lot of personal pain points with the very simple default editor we get in Dev.to. I figured I would try a personal project with all new tech that I know some things about but haven’t built anything serious with:
- Preact
- Next.js
- TailwindCSS
And done in TypeScript because that’s how I roll.

Here is my first livestream of that! Had a slow start but got a lot done in 90 minutes.
