I switched to a static site gen and a git repo. I lost the ability to preview. Sure, if I'm at home I can run the build script, launch a simple server, navigate to the page on localhost but it's a long way from say wordpress (previous solution) where it was a much nicer experience to preview.

Adding images into a post was also nicer. Just drag and drop instead of copy into folder, check into git, manaully type urls like it is now.

I use a private repo on github so at least I can add something without having to be at my computer but still no preview or nice UI.

Any static generators have well designed solutions for this?
