Understood. Yea I was hoping to give it a try, because I had a similar experience with the Beacon CMS demo a month or two ago.
I’m really glad to see Beacon’s making a strong open source effort, though. Really looks promising. I’m going to give BeaconCMS a try in a new project. I’ll try to add my experience to this thread.
Just wanted to drop my experience with BeaconCMS in here for anyone that needs it.
It works well, but (as of the time of writing this) the installation can be a little rough. Some dependency conflicts may pop up. For me, there was a need to add some of beacon_live_admin’s configuration files to the application where I have beacon_live_admin installed.
I ran into some issues with the install command (mix beacon.install --site my_site). Nothing major, but the script wasn’t finding the correct files to make a few of the code injections. You might want to use the manual instructions, instead.
The installation instructions don’t mention it, but you’ll need to create a database or use your existing one in the Beacon repo configurations. Also Beacon has migrations, so they’ll need to be ran.
TLDR: It works well. Installation was a little rocky, but I’m looking forward to working with Beacon CMS.
Hi @elmercante
I did appreciate your feedback
I would like to know form your experience what are the others headless CMS options That we will choose from (other than Beacon CMS)?
And finally what you did end up using as headless CMS for your projects?
Thanks 
@rsrsm the only other headless CMS option we really considered was Pardall. However, we were prepared to fork and extend Pardall for our own needs, because we determined that it’s not currently “non-engineer friendly”. There are paid solutions like Strapi, but we preferred a open source solution because we want to be able to access the codebase and it’s free. Right now we’re using Beacon CMS in our project. Like I said in my previous post, it’s a still a work in progress, but the ceiling is very high for Beacon. I recommend watching the presentation of Beacon by Leandro Pereira that @ryanwinchester posted.
