Hey everyone, and thanks for the hunt @chrismessina! I'm Sean, one of the cofounders of Simpla along with @bedeoverend. We built Simpla out of frustration with the CMS. It's a collection of new HTML elements that you use to create dynamic content directly in your code. Simpla doesn't have admin areas or forms, you edit content inline (without the risk of breaking things). And it all runs of the frontend, so you can mix beautiful dynamic content into anything. The editing experience looks like this:

We've been thinking about this problem for a long time, and the maturity of the Web Components spec last year was the lightbulb moment for us. We think putting dynamic content into HTML itself is the way forward for the web. Can't wait to hear your feedback! We'll be around to answer questions :-)
