Strapi vs Netlify CMS

I currently use Contentful for my blogging site (https://github.com/nishantwrp/nishantwrp-website). But now I wanted to migrate to an Open Source, self hosted CMS. I have two options

  • Netlify CMS
  • Strapi

I wanted to know which one of these would be best in my case and why?

Going with Strapi will mean having a Node.js server up to take requests and serve data. Netlify CMS, on the other hand means you'll have to go full JAMStack. Neither is better, but both have different workflows and are completely different in their philosophies.
