is a Java digital experience platform for managing and delivering web content, founded in Basel, Switzerland. The Community Edition is a zip download that contains an Apache Tomcat directory with the Magnolia webapps, so it runs as a Java web application on a Tomcat application server. Content lives in a Jackrabbit content repository that maps its hierarchical data onto a relational database. Editors work in the Shell, the web administration interface. Pages are rendered on the server from FreeMarker template scripts, and a REST delivery endpoint and a GraphQL module bundled with DX Core expose content for headless front ends. Magnolia also offers the platform as a managed service, DX Cloud.\n\nMagnolia's core source is not in a public repository. The Magnolia organization on GitHub holds demos, tutorials and documentation sources, so the code is reached through the downloads and the [documentation](https://docs.magnolia-cms.com/product-docs/).\n\n## Worth knowing\n\nThe Community Edition is free under the GPLv3 license, but it has fewer features than DX Core and is limited to one receiver and one site. DX Core requires a license to run."}
