Soffio - Rust-native publishing with a calm, focused admin

Soffio is an open-source, Rust-powered publishing platform that pairs a static-rendered public site with a calm, focused admin. Readers get server-rendered speed with light interactivity; writers get a clean workspace to draft, tag, and publish posts/pages, manage navigation, and tune settings—without a heavy CMS. Built on Axum + Askama + SQLx with caching and tracing. Self-host with Docker + Postgres. Great for engineers and technical writers who want fast, durable sites.

Hey Product Hunt! 👋 Soffio is my small, opinionated take on publishing: a static-fast public site for readers and a calm, focused admin for writers. It’s built in Rust (Axum + Askama + SQLx) with caching and tracing, and it’s open-source under BSD-2-Clause. Try the public site and the admin demo—the demo DB resets at the top of each hour so you can experiment freely. I’d love feedback on the writing UX, tag/month filters, and what you’d want next (search, dark mode, scheduled publishing, image uploads/CDN, RSS, and i18n are on my list). Thanks for checking it out! Public (demo): https://soffio.xfyyzy.xyz Admin (demo): https://admin.soffio.xfyyzy.xyz Github: https://github.com/xfyyzy/soffio
