Grav - The Best CMS You've Probably Never Heard Of!

Grav is a Fast, Simple, and Flexible file-based Web-platform.
Installing Grav via Docker is SUPER simple and only takes a moment.
In this video I'll show how to deploy Grav via Command Line (CLI) as well as via Portainer.

[@Verge321]

Thank you for making this video, really impressed with including both docker compose and portainer installation. Well Done!

[@DBTechYT]

Many thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!

[@cptwretched]

Thank you for making this video. It was very helpful.

[@oliveralmonte826]

Thank you for this great information. I'll be looking for more GRAV related videos :)

[@igorchilo]

And now I'm interested in Grav :) Thanks for video 👍

[@DBTechYT]

Hope you enjoy it!

[@maxva6245]

Grav is definitely very cool. Using it right now.

[@csilipo]

I have always liked your videos. Please keep up the good work. Carlo

[@DBTechYT]

Glad you like them!

[@enkiimuto1041]

I've looked into about 20 CMSes and grav was the final contender, time to see it in depth if it is worth it, thanks for the tips.

[@iamniks]

So, is it worth it?

[@donalddumb8648]

Can you give some feedback ?

[@HomelabTim]

Not sure if you meant to do this but there is an editing error at 7:36 you can see OBS pop in to screen ….. other than that great video I love the slight changes you’ve made like chapter sub-headings in the corner great job :)

[@DBTechYT]

Thanks! I actually changed my setup a bit today and it should prevent OBS stuff from even having the chance to show up :)

[@l0gic23]

​@@DBTechYTthe OBS setting to not record itself didn't work for your setup?

[@BrassicaMusic]

Come on, maaaaaaan!!!! It's free content!

[@ajnasaboobacker2267]

Nice content, Have you ever tried using Ghost CMS? if yes, Can you do a video of comparing Ghost vs Grav?

[@maxva6245]

Ghost is more database I think. I used it before but found it a bit odd. It's definitely more blogish.

[@redstormsju777]

So I installed using your guide via portainer. Was able to reply and crear an account. Once I am logged in, the admin page quickly times out. I get a gateway 504 message. Any thoughts on what that’s about?

[@DBTechYT]

The 504 (Gateway Timeout) status code indicates that the server, while acting as a gateway or proxy, did not receive a timely response from an upstream server it needed to access in order to complete the request. So I would look at your remote access setup. I'm not sure if you're using a reverse proxy like Nginx Proxy Manager or if you're using Cloudflare Tunnels, but it seems like this is where you want to start looking

[@redstormsju777]

@@DBTechYT thanks. I don’t use reverse proxies and I don’t have a proxy manager installed on my nas but I do use cloudflared tunnel for some of my containers. Would you recommend I set up grav to be accessed via tunnel?

[@DBTechYT]

@@redstormsju777 That's how I would do it. I use Tunnels for all of my remote access

[@stefwill]

I love Grav! That said though... Is it just me or is the Grav theme system an nightmare to work with?

[@OzDeaDMeaT]

what does CMS stand for?

[@DBTechYT]

Content Management System

[@greendsnow]

it's in php...

[@nelsontovars]

First comment! Blessings from the Lord God AlMighty! Thanks for this interesting content 😇👌

[@voodoovinny7125]

You go from talking about websites to portainer, docker, and containers. Seems like one cannot just load this up on their web hosted site.

[@DBTechYT]

Yeah. This channel's primary focus is Docker-related content. But... "Seems like one cannot just load this up on their web hosted site." What?

[@tyrand]

Docker Portainer CLI Why do I need to touch this shit for a simple webpage

[@DBTechYT]

You don't. But you can if you want. Your choice.
