Keystatic is a modern content management system (CMS) developed by Thinkmill Labs, designed to bridge the gap between developers and non-technical content contributors. It enables seamless editing of content stored in Markdown, JSON, or YAML files directly within a codebase, without requiring changes to existing workflows or databases. Key features include:
- Two-way editing: Content can be modified through an intuitive Admin UI or directly in code files, supporting frameworks like Next.js, Astro, and Remix.
- TypeScript API: Provides a robust, type-safe interface for content retrieval and management.
- Markdoc and MDX support: Enhances content with rich formatting and component integration.
- No database required: Leverages existing file systems or GitHub for storage, reducing complexity.
- GitHub integration: Allows for collaborative editing and version control through GitHub mode.
Use cases include building blogs, documentation sites, and dynamic web applications where content needs to be frequently updated by teams with mixed technical expertise. It's ideal for developers seeking a headless CMS that integrates smoothly with modern web frameworks.
