Any SSG + Cloudflare Pages + GitHub = The fastest CMS you've ever shipped ☀️
Four high-performance, serverless edge layers combined to deliver the speed of a static site with the editing convenience of Notion or Gutenberg.
An edge-native, server-side rendered (SSR) route serves the BlockNote canvas editor with a built-in Workers AI writing assistant (supporting grammar correction, tone tuning, and headline recommendations). Zero configuration is needed locally — Pouta fetches site schemas dynamically.
Every block typed autosaves to Cloudflare D1 SQLite at the edge, keeping your Git history completely clean. Images are securely uploaded straight to isolated Cloudflare R2 namespaces, with accessibility-compliant alt-text generated instantly by edge-native Llama 3.2 Vision.
On publishing, Cloudflare Workers serializes editor blocks into GFM Markdown/MDX and compiles metadata into YAML. The edge node dynamically signs a cryptographically secure RS256 JWT, exchanging it for a temporary GitHub App installation token to securely commit and push changes.
The incoming commit automatically triggers an optimized static build on Cloudflare Pages or your SSG of choice. Live pages are served globally with sub-50ms load times, while advanced edge capabilities (like AI widgets) are secured behind a lightweight Stripe billing verification gateway.
A powerful open-source Git-backed core, supercharged with premium edge-powered asset pipelines and AI assistants.
