PAYLOAD CMS
Headless CMS and application framework built on Next.js
MIT
ABOUT
Building a custom content management system requires duplicating admin UI, authentication, file upload, and API patterns across projects. Traditional CMS solutions like WordPress are not designed for modern frontend stacks, while headless alternatives sacrifice flexibility. Payload provides a fully extensible CMS with a generated admin panel that adapts to your data model, built on Next.js — so content teams get a rich editor and developers keep full control.
