[staticcms.org](https://staticcms.org/)
A CMS for static site generators. Give users a simple way to edit and add content to any site built with a static site generator.
## How It Works
Static 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.

# Installation and Configuration
The Static CMS can be used in two different ways.
- A Quick and easy install, that requires you to create a single HTML file and a configuration file. All the CMS JavaScript and CSS are loaded from a CDN.
To learn more about this installation method, refer to the [CDN Hosting Guide](https://staticcms.org/docs/add-to-your-site-cdn/)
- A complete, more complex install, that gives you more flexibility but requires that you use a static site builder with a build system that supports npm packages.
To learn more about this installation method, refer to the [Bundling Guide](https://staticcms.org/docs/add-to-your-site-bundling/)
