DEVELOP LIKE 2025

The CMS your clients will actually use.

Stop wrestling with bloated headless systems. WithoutCMS uses your Git repository as the backend, giving you a fast, modern workflow and an editor so simple it needs no explanation.

THE 2015 WAY

Monolithic & Slow

  • Bloated (e.g., WordPress)
  • Requires server maintenance
  • Security vulnerabilities
  • Poor developer experience

THE 2020 WAY

Headless & Complex

  • Abstracted (e.g., Strapi, Sanity)
  • Separate database & hosting costs
  • API and data model complexity
  • Content lives in a third-party silo

THE 2025 WAY

Code-First, Client-Proof.

  • Git is your content backend
  • Vercel, S3/R2, Postgres
  • Your code defines the schema
  • A UI that needs no explanation

Git is your Database

Leverage branching, PRs, and history for your content. Rollbacks are as simple as `git revert`.

Blazing Fast

Content is loaded directly from local JSON files during the build. No external API calls, no database latency. Just pure speed.

Developer Freedom

Build with the tools you love. You define the components, you own the front-end. We just provide the editing layer.

Zero Lock-In

Your content lives in your repo as structured data. You're never tied to a proprietary platform. It's your code, your content, forever.
