Sapphire CMS

A progressive headless CMS for a serverless world.

A Progressive CMS is a content management system that starts with a tiny core and grows with your project. It’s modular by design, serverless-ready, and built for a multi-platform world.
Getting started

Why Sapphire?

Environment-Agnostic

Runs anywhere JavaScript can:

Cloud, edge, terminal, CI/CD, Node, Bun — even in the browser.

No lock-in. No dependencies. Total freedom.

Truly Headless

No frontend bias. Build your presentation with React, Vue, Angular, Svelte, Astro, Next, Nuxt — or just HTML.

Sapphire gives you content. You control the experience.

Modular & Hackable

Powered by a tiny, pluggable core.

Need GitHub storage? A Firebase deployment target? Markdown rendering? Just add the module.

Sapphire CMS is built to be extended, tweaked, and reimagined.

Low-Code, Low-Config

Spin up a full CMS in minutes — no boilerplate.

A few terminal commands and a couple YAML files is all it takes.

Future-First Features

Sapphire CMS brings innovations other platforms barely dream of:

  • Channel-specific content shaping (social, mobile, email, etc.)
  • On-page visual editing via browser extension or embedded tag.
  • Built-in serverless search engine

Loved by Both Devs and Editors

Developers get control and composability.

Content managers get clean tools and instant editing.

Features

Microscopic Core, Modular Design

Start small and grow as you go. All you need is a GitHub account and Docker to start publishing content.

Sapphire CMS uses a tiny core that can be progressively enhanced with plug-and-play modules as your project grows.

Built for the Serverless World

Sapphire CMS is a first-class citizen of the serverless ecosystem.

Deploy effortlessly to Vercel, Netlify, Cloudflare Workers, Firebase Functions, AWS Lambda, and more.

Headless & Framework-Agnostic

Use any frontend you want — Next.js, Nuxt, Astro, Svelte, or plain HTML.

Sapphire CMS delivers content via flexible, decoupled APIs that fit any stack.

Lightning-Fast Content Delivery

Render and push content directly to CDNs or edge databases.

Enjoy near-zero latency delivery that feels like content is hardcoded into your app, but with full CMS flexibility.

Content Shapers for Every Channel

Target different platforms with precision.

Use content shapers to tailor output for:

  • Mobile vs Desktop
  • Social media (e.g. Twitter/X, Instagram, etc)
  • Newsletters or SEO snippets

Resize images, shorten text, plug in AI — shape your content pipeline as you wish.

Instant Visual Editing

Edit your content live and visually, right from the page.

Use the Sapphire CMS Chrome or Firefox plugin to fix typos or tweak text directly on your production site.

Serverless Search Engine

Integrate Sapphire Search — a lightweight, fast, serverless-native search engine built just for Sapphire CMS.

Enable your users to search content, without relying on third-party search services.
