The ultra-light, XML-powered flat-file CMS for the Small Web movement.
The ultimate flexible, content-first CMS for developers and editors who demand total control.
Craft CMS is a high-performance, professional-grade content management system built on the Yii PHP framework, designed to bridge the gap between developer flexibility and editor ease-of-use. Unlike traditional page-based systems, Craft treats content as structured data, utilizing its signature 'Matrix' field type to allow for sophisticated, modular layout building. In the 2026 landscape, Craft stands out as a premier hybrid CMS, offering native GraphQL support for headless architectures alongside a powerful Twig-based templating engine for server-side rendering. Its technical architecture is highly modular, supporting deep integrations with modern front-end frameworks like Vue, React, and Next.js. Notable for its 'Project Config' feature, Craft allows developers to version-control their database schema changes in YAML, ensuring seamless deployments across local, staging, and production environments. With the maturation of Craft 5 and 6, the platform has introduced advanced AI content-modeling assistance and native asset optimization pipelines, maintaining its status as the go-to choice for enterprise-level marketing sites, e-commerce platforms (via Craft Commerce), and complex data-driven digital products.
