Comment on Building a blog from scratch in 2022 using Hugo, Docker and a bit of Python

Content was created in the browser using terrible WYSIWYG editors, and elegant layout was hard to achieve.

You'd be surprised how powerful and elegant some WYSIWYG editors are.

Last time I built a blog it was just Nginx, Django with some WYSIWYG editor, and Postgres.

What's your solution for WYSIWYG Image uploading? Does the editor handle the image upload + processing? and where do you store the images? I have tried a project with similar requirements but stuck on the WYSIWYG editor choice.

I used django_ckeditor and ckeditor_uploader for a very simple site I built for an academic where they needed WYSYWIG forms, it worked a treat and easy to integrate. It's used by Django CMS too.

I used django-summernote to handle those https://github.com/summernote/django-summernote

That's nice. Thanks!
