Set up publii for a non-technical client, it looked like everything the client needed, but a few stumbling blocks
1) Themes are too limited, there are <10 and the path to customization is not simple. This is a chicken and egg problem, if publii grows, more themes come into the marketplace, but only having a few themes limits growth.
2) Even though it has a pretty good GUI, it is still confusing for non-technical people, and I struggled a lot with it too, mostly because there aren't tooltips next to fields to explain them (e.g. what is the difference between a "title" and a "label" for a link?)
I'll have to unfortunately move to something else for my client, and revisit publii at a later time.
2nding this. And if netlify stops being good, well, Publii has everything saved so I can just upload it someplace else. Having a gui on a static site generator is a must.
Is there a facility that Publii supports, to easily sync locally, before an edit/push (eg if you are using different client systems a lot), either with Google Drive or Git (preferably) ?
I never saw this feature listed when looking at Publii, which kept me from trying it.
Note, please don't say just sync down from the server before doing anything locally; I don't want that to be the point of record. I'd rather that be Git.
