What is SvelteCMS?

SvelteCMS is an attempt at creating a new kind of Content Management System that builds fast SvelteKit websites with content models from a configurable CMS but doesn’t require running a server or subscribing to a content SAAS. SvelteCMS…

• is software, not a product or service.
• runs as part of the site, not on a separate system.
• builds performant web apps, with minimal code on content pages, SSR and prerendering.^[1]
• builds sites that work without Javascript, so no more blank white screens.
• is database agnostic: store content in any server, repository, or database provider^[2].
• supports data portability: mix, match, and migrate content between storage solutions^[3].
• supports community interaction: manage user accounts from install^[4].
• supports serverless architecture: deploy CMS endpoints to any serverless provider^[5].
• supports static site generation: build locally and deploy to any web host.
• works in the browser: go truly “serverless” with Web Containers or isomorphic git.
• supports complex content models: conditional, nested, and calculated fields.
• manages the full content cycle: entry, storage, retrieval and display.
• enables code-free site building: go from data architecture to display with no code.
• is extensible: extend CMS functionality with components, plugins and hooks.
• is free for any number of sites, users, content types, plugins, etc.
