Probably the best headless CMS to go with especially if you want a good free tier. I recently evaluated a number of solutions for a ecommerce project and for our need Prismic was the best choice:
<ul>
<li>pocketbase</li>
<li>directus</li>
<li>sanity</li>
<li>ghost</li>
<li>strapi</li>
<li>tinacms</li>
<li>Decap CMS (netlify CMS)</li>
<li>Some others I’m forgetting</li>
</ul>
Things I really liked:
<ul>
<li>Schema creation, 100x easier than expected, actually enjoyable to use</li>
<li>slice machine is a clever way to handle inserting content blocks</li>
<li>Git integration was nice</li>
<li>Good editor experience</li>
</ul>
Things I didn’t like:
<ul>
<li>No write API</li>
<li>No mobile version of CMS (this wouldn’t be a problem if there was a write API</li>
<li>Not enough variation with each content block. If you want a block with say, text on the left and an image on the right. And you want a version with it flipped, that’s another slice. For the fairly minimal content needs of my site I guessed I needed like 15 seperate slices to handle like 6 content blocks with a few variations each.</li>
<li>Dashboard experience for managing pages isn’t always great</li>
<li>Creating tags and categories is clunky, if you need to insert a new category for products, you have to add the category before you edit the edit product</li>
</ul>
Happy to answer questions, my project got cancelled but I’ve got all this knowledge just languishing in my head lol.
