Open Source, Java-based Headless CMS

Crafter Community is the free, open-source and community-supported edition of CrafterCMS, a Java-based headless CMS  for enterprise-grade websites and other content-driven digital experiences. Built especially for those that require a high degree of performance, security, availability, and scalability.

An API-first, truly decoupled CMS that supports unique DevContentOps processes that accelerate productivity for all stakeholders, enabling developers, content authors, and ops to work seamlessly together and deliver modern sites and apps faster and easier than ever before.

The content authoring system provides a user-friendly experience and is built on top of Git as the content repository, providing sophisticated versioning and other advanced CMS features.  The separate, decoupled content delivery system is a very high performance, stateless and serverless Spring app that deploys and scales easily across the globe, without the complications and cost of external databases.

 

Amazing for Developers

As a headless, API-first development platform with a choice of REST, GraphQL, Javascript (and even Spring and Java if needed), CrafterCMS offers a blazing-fast, platform-agnostic interface for retrieving content and data. Freemarker templating built-in, along with OpenSearch for both authoring and delivery systems. Use a Git-based, distributed repository and work locally with the tools your developers know and love. You can collaborate and work with the rest of your team on a feature branch in parallel with other teams. 

Easy for Content Authors

Utilize CrafterCMS's easy-to-use web-based tools with in-context editing, drag-and-drop experience building, multi-channel preview, personalization and content targeting, and other tools that your authoring team will love. Your organization will have the capabilities they loved from a traditional CMS while gaining the new ability to integrate authoring capabilities with any application, running on any server, written in any language/framework, and the use of advanced features like auditing, version history, content dependencies, workflow and much more.

Fantastic for Ops

Manage a small footprint and scale effortlessly with true serverless and stateless dynamic content delivery support. Deploying code to your global infrastructure is only a push of a button and moving the latest content to a Dev, QA or other lower environments is only a Git pull away along with continuous integration (CI), native to CrafterCMS's Git-based repository. Deploy and operate with Docker and Kubernetes on any public cloud provider (AWS, GCP, Azure) or your own private infrastructure.
