Märchenforum Hamburg — a Weebly site rescued to Sveltia CMS (showcase candidate)

[copperdesign]

Hi! I'd like to share a site for the showcase — I noticed migrated-from=weebly currently has exactly one entry, so here's a second.

maerchenforum-hamburg.de — a Hamburg nonprofit (storytelling association) that lived on Weebly since ~2018. Rebuilt as a static site (posthtml + LESS, vanilla JS, Firebase Hosting) with Sveltia CMS at /admin as the editorial layer:

• One file collection, one shared section schema (YAML anchor) across all pages — editors see per-page section lists with markdown body, image, background tint, typed cards (media embeds / event rows / people directory), and a per-section draft toggle.
• Saving is publishing: every save commits to main, CI rebuilds and deploys in ~a minute.
• WCAG 2.1 AA (BFSG), image auto-optimization on upload, GitHub OAuth via a small Firebase Function relay.

Showcase metadata, if useful: Germany · nonprofit/community · framework: none (vanilla JS/posthtml) · migrated from: Weebly.

Context: I do these Weebly rescues with an open-source CLI I maintain (weebly-to-firebase — crawls the live Weebly site, ports HTML/CSS/images/forms to a buildable static project). I'm currently speccing a cms step so the tool scaffolds the Sveltia layer too. Since the migration docs don't cover website builders yet, I'd be happy to contribute a Weebly migration guide once the site repo is public — modeled on the Netlify/Decap guide format.

Thx for Sveltia — it's been rock-solid solution

Just added the site to the showcase. Thanks! 🎉

I added a Svelita option to my weekly-to-firebase CLI tool: https://github.com/copperdesign/weebly-to-firebase#cms-options - maybe that's a good FYI? Thanks again for adding the site! And I have another Weebly->Sveltia project = https://www.hanna-m-schilling.de - if you'd like another?
