Data Persistence / CMS options for personal blog?

Hi!

I want to start a personal blogging site from scratch.

I'm using Svelte for the front-end. There needs to be some data persistence, however - I'll have "admin" rights to post my own blogs and persist them. Although a back-end isn't totally necessary, I would like to have one as an exercise.

Right now I think MongoDB would be a good choice (open to other options). Does anyone have any recommendations of headless CMS's or methods for a simple back-end? I don't want to use Rails, as I'm looking to learn something new. I would like to have routing - something like www.blog.com/post-title. There are a lot of options, so I'm open to suggestions and experience :) Here are some options I'm currently considering:

  • Laravel
  • Node/Express
  • Django
  • Lokijs
  • Sanity.io

Would love to have some folks weigh in!
