Re: Handling copy on a small project

Hi all,

For my side project, we have the need to rapidly iterate on the app's copy. As I see it, we have two options: make copy db-driven, or hardcode it into the templates. I'm leaning toward putting text in the db for now to avoid having to teach our product guy the intricacies of commits and deployment, but I'm curious a) whether I'm shooting myself in the foot, and b) whether there are any go-to apps for this sort of thing.

I'm able to give more background as necessary, but just curious whether this question has an immediate answer.

P.S.: Sorry if this has been asked before, but searching for "copy" and "text" seems a bit futile after a few pages of results.

 

I'd vote for putting it in the db - you can use the built-in flatpages app, and even throw on a rich-text editor like TinyMCE if you need to.
