Reinvent Blogging: Decentralized, Privacy Oriented Platform

Full-Stack Dev for Custom Blog Platform (Privacy-Focused / GhostCMS + IPFS + Astro / Remote)

TL;DR:

We're building a privacy-respecting, decentralized-ready blog/media hub — blending speed, sovereignty and clean aesthetics.
Looking for a full-stack dev (or a strong frontend+backend duo) with real-world experience in:

VueJS or Astro

Ghost CMS (headless mode)

Python (API + backend logic)

IPFS / Tor integration

Security-minded, minimal, elegant design logic.

About the project:

We're not just launching a blog — we're creating a conscious media node, a place for high-signal content and complete independence from centralized control.

The goals:

Headless Ghost CMS with custom frontend (Astro preferred, or VueJS if needed)

Content served via IPFS with optional .onion mirror through Tor

No Google, no tracking, no telemetry.

Blog must be fast, clean, and ultra-lightweight (mobile-first)

Modular architecture to scale with private publishing, community commenting (possibly p2p), and encrypted micro-donations (Monero/BTC etc)


Tech stack overview:

Frontend: Astro (preferred), VueJS acceptable

CMS: Ghost CMS (headless API mode)

Backend/API: Python (can be FastAPI, Flask, or similar)

P2P: IPFS (Pinning & publish logic)

Privacy: Optional Tor access (.onion version)

CI/CD: Git, lightweight deployment (Docker optional)


You’re a good fit if:

You’ve built privacy-first or decentralized systems before (or deeply resonate with that philosophy)

You’re fluent with modern static site generation (Astro / Vue)

You’ve integrated Ghost CMS beyond default themes (e.g., using it as a headless CMS)

You understand content routing through IPFS (even basic experience is enough)

You can communicate clearly and offer technical suggestions aligned with long-term sovereignty


Bonus if you:

Know Tor services

Have experience with Monero or Lightning integration

Understand basic OPSEC and digital hygiene best practices


Scope & Format:

Remote, async-friendly

Start small with blog MVP + IPFS mirror

Expand into encrypted comment system, user auth, etc
