Features
Build complex publishing workflows with simple, composable parts:
robust internationalisation (i18n) and multi-site support
front-end (inline) editing so editors can work directly on rendered pages
a flexible placeholder and plugin system for reusable content components
integration with multiple rich-text editors
content versioning, editorial workflows, and headless setups via official add-on packages
a hierarchical page tree with SEO-friendly URLs
extensible navigation and application integration (apphooks)
Developing applications that integrate with and take advantage of django CMS features is easy and well-documented. More information on our website.

Installation & Quickstart
Create a fully configured django CMS project with a single command:
python -m pip install django-cms
djangocms mysite --interactive
cd mysite
python -m manage runserverThe djangocms command clones the official project template, installs the requirements, runs the migrations and creates a superuser for you. Run it without arguments to be guided through the available options (such as the headless mode) interactively.
Already have a Django project? Run djangocms . in its root directory to add django CMS to it.
Next, follow the official installation guide and tutorials: Installation
