This is an amazing write-up!

I'm a co-founder of Payload and I'm super pumped that you're giving us a shot. What you've said is accurate - it can be risky to give the new product a run, but I am confident that you'll love our developer experience.

We're around and willing to help as you implement. Seriously - any questions, jump in Discord or GitHub Discussions and we'll get you answers!

Wow, nice write-up indeed!

I got hooked, too, because you choose to include Payload πŸ˜€ I happened to try Payload a few weeks back, and I gotta say: I loved it!

I integrated it into a traditional Express SSR application (with a template engine), and after setting up a Mongo DB instance locally, it really was just "plug n play"

I can only encourage everyone to give PayloadCMS a shot!

I actually came across this hidden gem when searching through some Reddit discussion. Payload looks very promising to me, and surely there will be more follow-up articles down the road as I learn more about Payload technical aspects! 😊

By the way, the introduction series on YouTube is great. Considering there are not many demonstrations of Payload usage out there, the videos did help me a bunch in making final decision. Please keep it up! @jmikrut
