Some detail questions: Do I need to host it on Deta? Or how do I run it on other environments like AWS? what DB is used? I think the documentation needs a bit love ❤️

@electrobabe Hey! I agree! I used Flask & Tailwind, I choose Flask as it works best with Deta (normally I would have used Next.js) and Tailwind because I've heard a lot about it but never tried it!

@electrobabe Yep! So you just head to http://deta.space/discovery/berowra and install it there, a DB is included in the install. The docs do need some more love, I agree :D

👋 Hi friends (and Tosh, thank you for hunting me)! I've always found CMSs a challenge in the past, whether hosting them was painful or they cost a ton. No fun :( I wanted to make a CMS that was a little more fun and that you could use for a couple of minutes and then have the job done :D So I built Berowra (named after my grandparent's home town). First up, I built Berowra for Deta Space. The CMS will run in your own sandboxed 'personal cloud' in Deta Space, without the need for maintenance by yourself, for free (the best part IMO). You can directly view & access the data Berowra stores through Space, which gives you a nice look into how it all works. I feel hosting Berowra on Deta Space strikes a nice balance between the benefits of a self hosted CMS and a hosted CMS, which I'm reallly happy with. Here are the key parts of Berowra: - 🗄 Content is stored in collections to keep things nice and organised - 🔢 Seven different data formats available: string, date, number, markdown, colour, string array and files! - 🖼️ File hosting for images, videos and more - ⚡ A well documented API that is organised and supports filtering I've open sourced Berowra at https://github.com/sampoder/berowra and would love to hear what you think about Berowra! This is probably this biggest programming project of mine, it's been a journey for sure! Thank you :)

Lightweight and versatile and thus highly suitable for someone who has minimal VPS! I'm planning on starting a blog and it’ll be so much easier with multiple media hosting !

Love the fact that I can control from my personal cloud, a compartmentalized filing system that keeps stuff in its place and impeccable API filtering. Congratulations on the product!

Flashcards are the old and good method of retention. As someone who believes in active recalling rather than tedious memorization, Zorbi seems to save immense amounts of time, repurposing data to make it into flash cards, you don't even have to write the questions and options.
