To clarify: It's a different concept. And it's more of a starting point, rather than a solution. Its goal is not to build full-fledged a page builder or prototyping tools (such as Framer or Webflow). The layout is entirely up to the developer (and expressed in code), the content (as in structured data) is made editable. It's how Facebook/LinkedIn/Twitter/Medium etc. work, with the benefit that in many cases, you can edit within the layout. Image upload, drag and drop is all possible. The limit is what you can do with Svelte.

I think you should emphasize that it is based on svelte. You can't fairly call CMS and No-Code solutions complicated when you expect users to know Svelte. That limits your audience to the kind of people (front-end developers) that aren't desperate for such tools. I am using Framer on a project and I'm pretty happy with it.

If you want to go commercial, you could develop a platform for others to contribute building blocks and templates. Something that will pave the way for a no-code tool.

Exactly. This is for frontend developers, who want to control the layout in code, but allow end-users to make content changes (without destroying the layout :P).

If you or your end-users prefer to also define layout and style in a visual interface, that's what CMS and No-Code tools are made for.

As for earning money: I was thinking of creating specific templates (e.g. an editable artist portfolio website) and sell those at a one off price (in a similar way that Tailwind offers paid website templates). But I'm also really happy to do custom work. Like someone comes with a design and I execute it using this approach. I think there's much value for people who want a website but have not technical experience and still want to keep the content of their website up to date themselves. I could offer training for frontend developers to build editable websites with Svelte.
