AbeCMS

> AbeCMS is your __new CMS__ with revolutionary __self-descriptive__ templates

When creating blogs becomes as easy as 1-2-3. AbeCMS is an API first + static site generator with a great back-office for users.

For agencies: Go 12X faster than with Wordpress or Drupal to create websites and blogs
For devs: A js full stack framework for js full stack devs with extensibility and efficiency in mind

- __Markup your html templates with specific tags__, and your back-office is ready to go: It's time to contribute for your users!
- Add a complete __workflow__ of validation and permissions with ease, using the state of the art oAuth2 stack.
- __Deploy automagically__ to Surge, AWS S3, Github.io, or any web server via SFTP
- Create multi-languages, multi-locales, complex web structures in no time
- Add __plugins__ like abe-algolia, abe-elasticsearch... or create your own with just js skill

!From template abification to publication example

Goals

- Being the easiest CMS on the planet __for the developpers__ by providing 1 clear api stack to rule them all and using a html markup usable by non-devs to create a full website:
- Develop your HTML templates with hot reload and see changes in real time
- Develop your plugins with hot reload and see also changes in real time
- Directory-based URLs. Create directories and subdirectories in AbeCMS, the URL page will be expressed from its spot on the filesystem.
- Focus on your HTML integration, dynamizing it becomes a breeze with AbeCMS
- Being the easiest CMS on the planet __for the users__ by using hyper clean pages and A REAL wysiwyg editor fast and easy to use:
- One Dashboard for your analytics
- One Manager page for listing and searching all your posts
- One editor with a REAL wysiwyg of your post
- One page for managing your users and their authorizations
- THAT'S ALL !
- Being __content focused__ (the C in CMS):
- Data are created as JSON documents
- An API-first Server to serve your documents as json
- Or a static website generator
- Or both !

Why use AbeCMS instead of other CMS or Static Site Generators ?

- Designed for users
- A real __Wysiwyg Editor__
- A real __workflow__ and authorization engine based on oAuth2
- __Auto-generation of the back-office__ editor based on your markup
- __Live editing__ on each part of your site during development dramatically increasing the dev speed
- A __strong separation of data and templates__ making the reuse of data a breeze
- A __API-first REST server__: You create html pages and can consume data for your mobile, emails or whatever
