Choose DecapCMS or Publii?

Why choose DecapCMS?
While Decap CMS offers a user-friendly UI and supports most static site generators, its reliance on Git workflows and external asset hosting solutions may present a learning curve for some teams.
Why choose Publii?
Publii focuses on great editor experience with the block editor. It's a great choice for sites that are statically generated with plenty of choice of blog templates. However, it is not suitable for teams who wants to have custom design or have a blog in the same subdirectory as their main site.
