Decap CMS is a single-page app that you pull into the /admin part of your site.

It presents a clean UI for editing content stored in a Git repository.

You setup a YAML config to describe the content model of your site, and typically tweak the main layout of the CMS a bit to fit your own site.

When a user navigates to /admin/ they'll be prompted to log in, and once authenticated they'll be able to create new content or edit existing content.

Read more about Decap CMS Core Concepts.

Decap CMS can be used in two different ways.

• A quick and easy install that requires a single HTML file and a configuration file. All CMS JavaScript and CSS are loaded from a CDN. Learn more in the Quick Start Guide.
• A complete, more advanced install that gives you more flexibility but requires a static site builder with a build system that supports npm packages.

Decap Turbo is a hosted backend for Decap CMS: editors log in with Turbo accounts, large collections load from a cache, and access is managed per site. Explore it at https://decapcms.org/turbo/.
