CLICMS LAB / CATEGORY

Foundations.

Build the publishing system before adding the automation.

What this collection covers

A CLI CMS starts with a decision about where content lives and how it becomes a public page. These foundational guides connect file-based editing, version history, shared templates, and a predictable output directory. Read them in order when you are moving from a single landing page to a maintainable website. The goal is an understandable process, not an extra layer of tooling.

Use this archive as a reading path rather than a checklist of tools to acquire. Work through the concept that matches your current decision, test it on one representative page, and return to the broader workflow when the next stage begins. The linked main guide brings the individual articles back into a complete website plan.
