* return date object from date/datetime widgets if no format set BREAKING CHANGE As of 1.0, the documented behavior for the date and datetime widgets was to always return a string value, but they were instead returning a date object if the default date was not manually changed by the user. This was addressed in #1143, but it became clear afterward that static site generators were depending on the raw date objects that Netlify CMS was unintentionally producing. Remaining as is or addressing the bug were both "breaking" states, so this commit reverts to producing raw date objects when no format is explicitly set. It is now considered an edge case to require string dates, as most static site generators expect to parse a raw date against formatting in a site's templates. Also note that this commit improves the original behavior by always providing a date object when no format is provided, even if the user manually changes the value. * produce raw date when no format is provided
Netlify CMS
A CMS for static site generators. Give non-technical users a simple way to edit and add content to any site built with a static site generator.
How it works
Netlify 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 login, and once authenticated
they'll be able to create new content or edit existing content.

Installation and Configuration
The Netlify CMS can be used in two different ways.
- A Quick and easy install, that just 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 Quick Start Guide
- 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.
