## Notes

Sveltia CMS is a Git-based headless CMS: an admin interface that edits the content, configuration and media of a static site in the site's own Git repository. The admin is a single-page application that runs in the browser and is loaded from a CDN script or installed from npm. The [start guide](https://sveltiacms.app/en/docs/start) places it in a static files folder of the site, next to an index.html and a config.yml, and the admin signs in with the Git hosting provider. The project is built with Svelte and describes itself as the successor to Netlify CMS and Decap CMS.

## Worth knowing

The project describes itself as in beta before a stable 1.0 release, and its docs warn that breaking changes may still come before that release. The architecture page says the admin runs without a backend server, with GitHub authentication as the only exception.
