We all know the CMS platforms that make us wonder every day why nothing truly new comes to the market. The answer seems simple: monopoly. And yes, to some extent that's true. But most people don't stop to think why they became monopolies in the first place.
It's largely a legacy trend that started back when PHP was supposed to "change the world." Well, here we are - and it didn't. PHP is increasingly becoming a technology many of us want to move away from rather than integrate into modern projects.
This is the 21st century. JavaScript powers the internet.
With JavaScript, we can build the frontend, the backend, modules, run parallel processing with Workers, integrate seamlessly with cloud providers, and scale without friction. It has the largest open-source community in the world. The ecosystem is massive.
What has been missing, however, is a truly powerful CMS written entirely in JavaScript.
The good news? I’ve been working on such a project for years, and I believe the time is coming to move into a beta testing phase.
If anyone is interested in joining the testing phase and providing feedback, I would be happy to connect. I would also genuinely love to hear your opinion about a product like this.
Imagine a CMS with:
A built-in builder
Ready-to-use plugins
A JavaScript-first architecture
Designed primarily for online services
Because most CMS platforms today focus heavily on becoming eCommerce systems for selling physical products, and in doing so, they lose sight of a huge audience.
There are countless people who want to build:
Paid online services
Digital or hand-crafted product platforms
Gaming websites
Coffee shop websites
Subscription-based platforms
And many other service-oriented projects
What do you think about a CMS built specifically for the service economy rather than traditional eCommerce?
