Automad is a free and open-source flat-file content management system (CMS) and templating engine and is distributed under the MIT license[3]. It can be used to create websites and blogs that require a high level of design flexibility[4][5].
As a light-weight flat-file content management system, Automad doesn't use a database to store content[6][7]. Instead, content is stored in JSON formatted text files, organised in a file tree. By using file-based routing, page URLs resolve to the actual text files on the server's filesystem. Despite the lack of a database, Automad provides database-like functionalities such as tagging and searching.
Content and settings can be edited in a browser-based dashboard where a user can compose pages out of several block types using a fork of EditorJS[8]
Automad is under active development and has an active community of users and developers[9][10]. Version 2 is currently in a public alpha stage[11][12]. Developers and users can try new releases on Automad's demo platform.
Architecture
[edit]Automad's backend is written in modern PHP and follows loosely the Model-View-Controller approach. The system consists of multiple modules such as the core, the template and block engine, and an internal API for client-server communication.
The dashboard (frontend) is written in TypeScript. It is notable that Automad doesn't use any frontend framework such as React or Svelte but instead makes heavily use of web components that are naively supported in modern browsers.
Template Language
[edit]While written in PHP, Automad ships with a custom templating language[13] that provides small but secure set of statements, control structures and functions that also allow inexperienced developers to create secure templates and themes without PHP knowledge.
