Ghost vs HubPress: What are the differences?
Developers describe Ghost as "Just a blogging platform". Ghost is a platform dedicated to one thing: Publishing. It's beautifully designed, completely customisable and completely Open Source. Ghost allows you to write and publish your own blog, giving you the tools to make it easy and even fun to do. On the other hand, HubPress is detailed as "A web application to build your blog on GitHub". HubPress is a free, open source tool to build your future awesome blog!.
Ghost and HubPress belong to "Self-Hosted Blogging / CMS" category of the tech stack.
Ghost and HubPress are both open source tools. Ghost with 30.3K GitHub stars and 6.55K forks on GitHub appears to be more popular than HubPress with 2.85K GitHub stars and 3K GitHub forks.
So many choices for CMSs these days. So then what do you choose if speed, security and customization are key? Headless for one. Consuming your own APIs for content is absolute key. It makes designing pages in the front-end a breeze. Leaving Ghost and Cockpit. If I then looked at the footprint and impact on server load, Cockpit definitely wins that battle.
