Content Management

The new standard for Headless CMS.

Manage and deliver content across any platform or device. Deliver incredible experiences with no limits on users, content, or assets.

you and your users want.

From simple blogs to complex, multilayered websites, Directus makes creating, updating, and managing content a breeze for everyone.

Build in hours. Not days or months.

Directus is completely unopinionated, which means you don’t have to lose time trying to learn new tools or tech stacks. Integrate your favorite frameworks and tools and go.

Every other CMS I’ve worked with feels archaic, but with Directus, it’s like we’re leaving the Dark Ages behind.
