What you give up either way
- Hosted global CDN and managed uptime
- Built-in forms and integrations (Zapier, Mailchimp, Airtable)
- White-label dashboard and client billing workflows
- Cookieless built-in analytics and DDoS/Cloudflare protections
- Polish: 250+ UI blocks, templates, and a mature WYSIWYG editor
An open-source project doing the core job proves a replacement is possible. It does not prove it matches Dorik, and it does not prove anyone has run it for a month. How we decide.
