Tired of juggling between Git and YAML to update your Next.js, Astro, Hugo, or Nuxt site? Simplify your life by installing a user-friendly CMS directly on GitHub with Pages CMS, the new favorite among content managers for static sites.
With this tool, no more headaches with configuration files and tedious commits as it integrates seamlessly with your GitHub repository, allowing you to manage your content directly from an intuitive interface. You can customize your content types, views, search… and on the editing side, you will enjoy a rich text editor with syntax highlighting, drag-and-drop for your files, ultra-fast full-text search… All topped with well-thought-out features like update scheduling or granular access control.
Pages CMS is 100% free, open-source, and you can use it online or self-host it without spending a dime. In a few clicks, you create your account, connect your GitHub repository, and voila, you’re ready to master your content like a pro. Isn’t life as a developer beautiful?
I can see you coming with your concerns. “But won’t it turn my repository into a mess?” Not at all! Pages CMS is a simple front-end app with limited back-end functionalities. It runs on Cloudflare Pages and doesn’t interfere with your code. And if you want to stay in control, you can always use Git for sensitive changes.
Speaking of Git, rest assured: Pages CMS does not have access to ALL your repositories. It uses GitHub’s OAuth flow for targeted authorizations. Your access tokens are never stored on the server side. Your code remains your precious, as Gollum would say.
To install it, go to pagescms.org, create your account in two clicks, and connect your GitHub repository. And there you go, you’re ready to master your content. For self-hosting enthusiasts, it takes just 10 minutes to deploy Pages CMS on your Cloudflare account.
On that note, I’ll leave you to it; I have content to publish myself.
