  coolrivers asked:

  Are there any React CMSs that have close the functionality of Wordpress? I'm working on a project that has a react-based interactive map that I want to tie to content pieces. I've used wordpress a lot in the past and React for SPA sites. As much as I love React, I'm struggling to find a CMS system that will allow me to get attractive pages, menus, and user admin as quickly as wordpress will. It feels like I would have to build so many things manually vs. just using wordpress. Anyway, does anyone know of a React-based CMS with a lot of functionality included?

  Where to host? Hi all, Currently studying a computing degree and have a web development module which I love, were using xampp to emulate actual webdomains but I want to spend a small amount of money hosting a real page, I already own a domain I purchased a few years ago but just need some suggestions on a cheap place to host for me and maybe my lecturer to view for fun projects and testing on multiple devices. I have a server running in my house and have debated hosting myself but would prefer to just pay a small subscription rather than go this route for maintenance and uptimes sake Any suggestions would be appreciated

  Since you're a student, check out [GitHub Student Developer Pack](https://education.github.com/pack). You get extra AWS cloud credits, DigitalOcean credits & 2 years free Heroku Hobby Dyno - all of which can be used to run web servers. [Google Cloud](https://cloud.google.com/free/) also gives $300 credit for a year and free tiers for many of their products after the credit runs out. If you just need to host static web pages then [Netlify](https://www.netlify.com/) is a great choice with a free tier.

  Web hosting and domain provider for basic developer website? UK preferred. I'm looking for web hosting, with the choice to buy a .com domain name from the host too. It will be for my developer website, which won't require anything fancy back-end\* Does anyone have a recommendation? Ideally I'd like a UK-based host so I can call them with any queries. \*That's what she said.

  Netlify.com Best in class. Free for fairly large loads. Stay away from shared hosting. They are always oversold. If you have a backend, get a VPS, if you don't then host purely static. For static Netlify is your best option. Other options are GitHub Pages and hosting directly from S3. These are all free or ultra cheap (you're looking at pennies a month for S3) and widely used and accepted sites and will be better than any shitty cheap vps host or shared host you'll find.

  Anyone have suggestions for a minimalist static blog commenting system? Disqus immediately injects like 600 vertical pixels of crap.

  Sadly Poole has become dusty... but the approach still stands up. I'd suggest using it with https://www.netlify.com/docs/form-handling/
