Try out: Frontend Editor for Hugo / Hinode Theme with Go

After check out a few frontend editors for Hugo like TinaCMS and others i decided to create one for myself. At the moment I use VS Code with FrontMatter and missing same feature. Especially for other user who are not using VS Code.

Also I would like to learn a few more things with Go, so give it a go…

The Editor is WIP and not production ready yet.

What I need for editing  

• Internal links to other markdown files, also in different language sub folder (en, de)
• Link and edit images
• Spelling (cSpell for VS Code is great)
• Grammar (LTeX for VS Code does not always work)
• Simple Edit and customize the text
• Unique categories and tags
• Translations
• Workflow for edit and release
• Connection to other api / scripts
• Use Browser Add-In for editing
• Add same AI logic and other stuff
