An edge-first CMS is cool. I've wanted something that works well alongside Astro for ages.

That said, WordPress is a weird paradigm to be replicating in 2026. WP won on extensibility, but the actual legacy of that ecosystem is bloat, security disasters and dogshit performance.

What I think makes more sense is this kind of edge backend paired with a proper modern authoring experience with visual control like Framer/Webflow with Notion-style database primitives underneath.

And given how fast AI is getting at generating bespoke business logic, building another monolithic plugin ecosystem feels like solving the wrong problem.

Plugins were a workaround for the fact that most people couldn't write code. That's increasingly not true.
