Open Source Headless GraphQL CMS

In plain words

This is a headless GraphQL content management system available as open source software. It allows developers to manage and deliver content through GraphQL APIs without a traditional user interface layer. Launched in 2018, the project is hosted on GitHub and targets developers building modern applications who need flexible content infrastructure. It separates content management from presentation, enabling content to be used across multiple platforms and applications.
