Ground Control is a blogging platform built expressly for Meteor. Write in markdown, deploy in seconds.

While researching another Meteor.js focused opinion post (soon to be posted), I stumbled onto Ground Control from Tom Coleman, which is literally days old in terms of announcement, but 6 months old in commits.

From the announcement post:

Ground Control is still fairly bare-bones at this point, but it does allow you do the following:

• Write posts in Markdown
• Set a global email domain for admin users (e.g. @percolatestudio.com)
• Invite users manually if an email domain is not appropriate
• Publish and un-publish posts, as well as manage your post list
• Subscribe to the posts via RSS (see the link on the top right)

There’s a lot more that can be done to make Ground Control awesome, and we’d love your help!

Ground Control creator–Tom Coleman–has his own blog running on Ground Control. So, at least the basic concept is out there.
