Trying to understand Calypso.
-
I’m a new Angular/React webdeveloper and I would like to know how Calypso can help me.
1.) How can I add a self-hosted wordpress site to Calypso?
2.) Can I use Calypso to manage a self-hosted site built in React/Angular or another modern JS framework? If so, that would be awesome!! I like to free-lance and it would be great to be able to hand-off the product to a non-tech savvy client to be managed using the Calypso CMS.The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there,
1) Managing a self-hosted site via Calypso requires that site to have the Jetpack plugin installed and connected to a WordPress.com account. Unlike the mobile apps, you cannot use a self-hosted site via Calypso with a Jetpack connection.
2) Calypso uses the WordPress.com REST API to interact with our database, so it cannot be used with sites not making use of our API. However, the code is open source on GitHub and you’re welcome to fork it and create your own version that can work with other sites if you know how.
We’re not able to help you with that in this forum, though. This forum is only for technical support in using WordPress.com. For the type of help you’re looking for, I’d recommend creating an issue on GitHub instead:
