Payload CMS

Payload CMS is a modern, open-source CMS. Instead of storing everything in a fixed template, it lets you (the developer) define exactly what type of content you need — blog posts, team members, product pages — and generates an admin panel automatically based on those definitions.

What makes Payload different from older systems like WordPress is that the content model is written in code. This means it is more consistent, easier to maintain, and gives developers more freedom to build exactly what a project needs.

I use Payload CMS for some my latest projects, including my own site. On the frontend I use Next.js.
