Bloggin API

I am looking for a blog service that lets me write a blog post on their end and then provide me with a JSON that I can pull from my own app.

I basically want to implement a little blog into my app but don't want to develop the entire thing myself.

Does anyone know an online service that does that?

Possibly free or freemium?

Many Thanks

    I think you are looking for an API-first headless CMS.

    You can host your own with strapi.io or check out free plans from the following: prismic.io (1 user, unlimited API calls, documents, assets, Image Optimizations), storyblok.com (1 user with unlimited API Requests), graphcms.com (5 users with up to 1 million monthly API calls and 100GB monthly asset traffic), contentful.com etc.

    I hope that helps!

      There is a wide range of headless cms you can choose from.
      Also, take a look at Apisful. It's cloud-based headless cms that

      • scales automatically to any size
      • provides CDN and image transformation API for your media content
      • well documented with step-by-step guide
      • allows managing content even with your phone
      • provides customer success team for the free pricing tier

    sanity.io is a good one. Personally I just prefer wordpress. Just dump it on some cheap hosting and then use the wordpress api to pull your data through into your app.

    Moogle.cc (my blogging platform) is exactly what you need. Posting is as simple as sending an email to Moogle. Grabbing the data is done by making a single API call which returns the contents of your email (aka blog post) as a JSON.

    Check out the README to get a sense if this is what you were looking for.

    You can do it with Ghost and its content API
