Our CMSless architecture is built on a carefully chosen stack of modern technologies. At the core is Next.js 15 with the App Router, providing server-side rendering, static site generation, and incremental static regeneration (ISR) out of the box.

For styling, we use Tailwind CSS 4 with a formalized design system. Content lives in MDX files for static pages and WordPress (via REST API) for blog posts. TypeScript ensures type safety throughout, and Storybook documents our component library.

The deployment pipeline is simple but powerful: GitHub for version control, Vercel for hosting and edge delivery, and automated preview deployments for every pull request. This stack lets us move fast without breaking things, and scales from small landing pages to enterprise applications.

The future of content management is not about better interfaces or more features – its about removing the interface entirely. With AI tools like Claude Code, content creators can describe changes in natural language and watch them happen in real-time.

Imagine saying ‘Change the hero title to Summer Sale and make the CTA button green’ and having the AI edit your MDX file, create a pull request, and deploy a preview URL – all in seconds. No training needed, no clicking through menus, no wondering which field to edit.

This is not science fiction. We are already using this workflow in production. The AI understands your design system, respects your conventions, and creates clean, maintainable code. Content creators focus on what they do best – creating content – while the AI handles the technical details.

MDX (Markdown + JSX) represents a fundamental shift in how we think about content. Instead of storing content in a database and rendering it through PHP templates, MDX files live in your repository alongside your code.

This approach has several advantages: full version control with Git, type-safe content with TypeScript, the ability to use React components directly in your content, and the power of static site generation for performance. Your content becomes code, and your code becomes content.

Traditional CMS platforms excel at dynamic, frequently-updated content. But for marketing pages, landing pages, and documentation that changes quarterly at most, MDX offers a compelling alternative. The best part? You can mix both approaches – use MDX for static pages and WordPress REST API for your blog.

After years of managing content with traditional WordPress, we decided to take a different path. The constant battle with plugins, theme updates, and the growing complexity of Gutenberg blocks was slowing us down.

Our team spent more time fighting with the CMS than actually creating content. Every page required custom CSS tweaks, JavaScript fixes, and countless rounds of back-and-forth between developers and content creators. We knew there had to be a better way.

The solution was radical in its simplicity: keep WordPress for what it does best (blog content and the REST API), but move everything else to a modern stack. Now our static pages are lightning fast, fully version-controlled, and can be edited through natural language prompts to Claude Code.

Welcome to the future of content management! CMSless is a revolutionary approach to building websites that combines the power of modern frontend frameworks with AI-assisted content creation.

In this post, we explore how to get started with CMSless and why it is changing the game for developers and content creators alike. The key insight is simple: if your content rarely changes after launch and your designs follow clear conventions, you can eliminate the traditional CMS entirely.

The CMSless approach uses Next.js for the frontend, MDX files for static content, and WordPress REST API for blog posts – all orchestrated through AI tools like Claude Code. This gives you the best of all worlds: blazing fast static pages, dynamic blog content, and an intuitive editing experience.
