Spina CMS

Content management system built into Ruby on Rails applications, with its own admin interface at /admin.

Spina CMS is a content management system that runs inside a Ruby on Rails application. It is added to a Rails project through a Gemfile entry and set up with the rails spina:install task, after which the admin interface is served at /admin. All page content is stored in a single JSON column in the application’s database, and parts support translations out of the box. Rendered output uses ERB views.

Worth knowing

The website named in the repository does not resolve, so the guide read here is the docs folder in the repository.
