elek.io Desktop

A modern, offline-first content management system (CMS) and digital asset manager (DAM).

Platform

Important

elek.io Desktop is under active development and not yet ready for production usage! Feel free to check it out and make suggestions.

Motivation

Traditional CMS solutions like WordPress need to be installed on a server, leading to costs for hosting it 24/7, security vulnerabilities by exposing the server to the internet, and the need to maintain / keep the server, database and CMS up to date.

elek.io Desktop solves these problems by being an offline-first desktop application that works entirely on your local machine, with optional remote synchronization.

What Makes It Special

  • Offline-first: Works entirely locally with optional remote synchronization
  • Cross-Platform: Desktop apps for Windows, macOS, and Linux
  • Version Control: Every Project is a Git repository with full version history
  • Easy backups & collaboration (optional): Synchronize to any Git hosting service (GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket etc.) to work together with others and have a backup if needed
  • Multi-Language: Built-in support for 24 languages
  • Structured Content: Define custom content types (Collections) with field definitions
  • Developer-Friendly: Local read-only OpenAPI REST API with optional typesafe TS/JS API Client generation and JSON file exports for programmatic access to your content e.g. to use with static site generators
