Sonic is a lightweight, high-performance blogging platform and CMS written in Go, inspired by the Halo project. It ships as a small single binary with an admin console, theming support, and multiple database and object storage backends.
Use cases
- self-host a personal blog
- run a lightweight CMS on a VPS
- deploy a blog with Docker
- start a blog with SQLite and no external dependencies
- publish posts with a customizable theme
- host blog media on S3-compatible object storage
When to choose
- you want a fast, single-binary blog server in Go
- you like Halo but prefer a Go backend
- you need a small-footprint self-hosted CMS with SQLite or MySQL
- you want cross-platform builds including ARM and MIPS
When to avoid
- you need PostgreSQL support, which is not yet implemented
- you need a mature plugin ecosystem or enterprise CMS features
- you prefer headless CMS with a separate API-first architecture
