Information About “hybrid-sites”

Hybrid sites refers to a class of self-publishing software that uses a database-driven back-end CMS like WordPress or Notion for content creation and management, but exports the content to markdown with frontmatter that a static site generator like Lume can process into rendered HTML.

Essentially, in a hybrid setup, the database server exists for local development, managing comments, managing drafts and media, and all of the other tasks commonly associated with it. What's different is that no queries are necessary to serve the generated pages.

Because Lume 3 lends well to this with its Router middleware, Cushy Docs tries to lend well to being a theme for this sort of setup for technical authors and marketers.
