I‘m not sure it’s a perfect example, but at least it’s a very realistic example from a company that really doesn’t have time and energy for hype or fluff:

We are currently sunsetting our use of Webflow for content management and hosting, and are replacing it with our own solution which Cursor & Claude Opus helped us build in around 10 days:

https://dx-tooling.org/sitebuilder/

https://github.com/dx-tooling/sitebuilder-webapp

Thanks for the link.

So, basically you made a replacement for webflow for your use case in 10 days, right?

  • That's fair to say, yes, with the important caveat that it isn't a 1:1 replacement of Webflow, which is exactly the point.

I’m not sure the world needed yet another CMS

  • It doesn't. The person is saying they built just the functionality they needed. Probably 25% of a CMS. That's the point.

    • Exactly.

      And the big advantage for us is two things: Our content marketers now have a "Cursor-light" experience when creating landingpages, as this is a "text-to-landingpage" LLM-powered tool with a chat interface from their point of view; no fumbling around in the Webflow WYSIWYG interface anymore.

      And from the software engineering department's point of view, the results of the work done by the content marketers are simply changes/PR in a git repository, which we can work on in the IDE of our choice — again, no fumbling around in the Webflow WYSIWYG interface anymore.
