Siteleaf vs Sitepins

Siteleaf is a content management system for building and publishing static websites with Jekyll. Users can work with existing or custom Jekyll themes and edit through a visual editor or Markdown. They can drag in images and text files, preview changes, and sync content and theme updates with GitHub to review edits or return to earlier states. Siteleaf can publish to Amazon S3, GitHub Pages, Rackspace Cloud Files, and hosts that support FTP or SFTP. It also supports imports from WordPress, Tumblr, Ghost, and Drupal through Jekyll importers. A JSON API exposes Jekyll content, and the service says tasks can be automated with Zapier. Generated static files do not require a database or complicated server setup. Siteleaf no longer provides built-in hosting for v2 sites. Plans range from Developer at free to Enterprise starting at $299 a month. New sites receive a 14-day Personal plan trial without a credit card.

Sitepins is a Git-based content editor for static-site projects, giving writers, marketers, clients, and teams a visual way to edit repository content. Each save is recorded as a Git commit, leaving the repository as the source of truth. It supports Markdown, MDX, JSON, YAML, and TOML, with visual, Markdown, and raw-code editing. Specific support is shipped for Astro, Next.js, Hugo, TanStack Start, Nuxt, SvelteKit, Eleventy, Jekyll, Gatsby, Remix, and Hexo. Editing tools include media management, schemas, live preview, version history, SEO tools, and reusable snippets. GitHub repositories are supported, while GitLab is available on Team and higher plans. Team collaboration includes roles, permissions, email invitations, real-time cursors and avatars, and version-history rollback. Sitepins runs on web, Android, and iOS and can be installed as a Progressive Web App. Hosted plans include Pro at $10 a month, Team at $24 a month, and Agency at $40 a month, each billed yearly. A 15-day trial is listed. Self-hosted installs have every feature unlocked without plans, limits, or billing.
