Ask HN: Will Ghost be the next Wordpress?
Do you think there's any chance, or the nature of async, the need of Node process always be running (and then having to use things like Forever), will prevent this from happening?
The advantage that ghost has is that it built with a newer and much more solid framework, so it's not as clunky and has less bugs and security vulnerabilities to deal with (at least for now). The built-in analytics are a nice advantage as well.
In any case, I'm optimistic and excited about the ghost platform. I plan to make a move to ghost within the next coming weeks. I just hope the next release brings in some basic features, like static content pages.
The rise of Ghost resemble a lot of Wordpress at that time: simple and fast - both features Wordpress doesn't have anymore... and Ghost do, despite the nature of the language and Node itself like I pointed above.
