PublicCMS
Java content management system with a visual editor, static site generation and an admin interface.
www.publiccms.com/en/repository
PublicCMS is a content management system written in Java. The application runs as a Java process on MySQL: the project’s instructions start the packaged web archive with java -jar, or run it in Docker, and the admin area is served under /admin/. The homepage says the site can be generated as static files.
Worth knowing
The current license is not MIT. The license file is written in Chinese, and it limits non-commercial use to individual users and requires a commercial authorization from the copyright holder for commercial use. The homepage says enterprises and institutions pay to use the current editions. The older releases the README names are MIT-licensed, so a site built on one of them is under different terms from a site on a current release.
