| Product | Hyvor Blogs is an open-source blogging platform that bundles tools to create and manage a blog. | Meridian is a self-hosted blog engine with memberships and newsletters built in. |
It suits solo bloggers and teams that want blog publishing with themes, scheduling, translations, or collaborative editing. Developers can use its APIs and choose hosted or self-hosted deployment, though self-hosting requires Docker, PostgreSQL, and an OIDC provider.
Meridian suits publishers comfortable with self-hosting who want memberships, newsletters, and Stripe subscriptions. Its web, Linux, and deployment options also fit teams choosing their own infrastructure.
