A modern Git-based CMS

Content editing without a database — straight in your Git repository.

Sveltia CMS is a modern, Git-based content management system for static sites. Editors work in a clear panel, and every change lands as a commit in the repository — no server, no database, and no maintenance costs.

Built-in multilingual support

Native support for multiple languages and translations lets you run localized versions without duplicating editors' work.

A modern editor

A fast, friendly panel with live preview means editors need no technical knowledge or access to the code.

Media optimisation

Managing images and files with automatic optimisation for performance and Core Web Vitals.

Open source and free

Developed under an open licence, with no licensing fees and no lock-in to an external service provider.

Our expertise

How do we work with Sveltia CMS?

Sveltia CMS is our choice when a site has to be fast and static, yet editors need a convenient panel to manage content — without a database and without running an application server.

Why Sveltia CMS?

Classic CMS platforms require a server and a database that must be updated, secured and maintained. Sveltia reverses that model — content lives in a Git repository, and the editor is just a convenient front end for the files.

  • No database: Content is stored in Markdown and YAML files, which simplifies backups and migrations.
  • Versioning in Git: Change history, reverting edits and viewing diffs work just like they do for code.
  • Multilingual: Native support for multiple locales — ideal for PL/EN sites.
  • Performance: No database queries mean instant loading and easy scaling.

What we do at Tesserakt

Editor setup

  • Content model: We design the collection and field structure to match editorial and SEO needs.
  • Roles and permissions: We set up access through GitHub so editors never have to know Git.
  • Multilingual: We configure language versions and the relations between translations.

Project integration

  • Any site generator: We connect the CMS to Astro, Next.js or another SSG according to your architecture.
  • Media and optimisation: We wire up the asset repository with automatic image optimisation.
  • Preview and publishing: We set up a publishing workflow based on commits and pull requests.

Maintenance for years

  • Backups by nature: All content is in the repository, so a backup is just a clone.
  • Security: No public backend means a smaller attack surface.
  • Data sovereignty: Your content and its rights stay in your repository.

Summary

Sveltia CMS gives editors the comfort of a modern panel, and the company speed, security and full ownership of its data. At Tesserakt we implement it so editors work simply and the site stays fast and scalable.
