Features
-
Any content you like
Organize content your way. Every page type or data entry can have the completely unique data structure that your project demands.
-
Internationalization
Multi-language support is baked right into the core, so you don’t depend on plugins or frameworks to translate your site.
-
Asset management
Kirby stores media files in the same folder as the page content, not in a giant media library. Never lose track of pictures or other items again.
-
Markdown & KirbyText
Enjoy a fast and effective editing experience with Markdown. KirbyText extends Markdown and makes it even easier to add links, images, videos and more to your text.
-
Built-in REST API
Use Kirby as a headless CMS with the full power of the Panel in the background. This makes Kirby the perfect companion for your SPAs or mobile applications.
-
Version control
As Kirby is a file-based CMS, you can version control all content with Git or any other VCS. Deployments, backups and synchronization of multiple stages are a breeze.
-
Bring your own data sources
While files and folders are Kirby’s primary data source, you can generate pages from databases, REST APIs or even Excel sheets if that’s your thing.
-
Custom publishing workflows
Customizable page states give you maximum control over your workflow, from drafts over unreviewed to published pages. Choose what you need and start creating.
-
Vue UI Kit
Kirby’s Panel is powered by Vue. Use the full power of Vue or our Vue UI component kit to make the admin interface truly yours.
Don't take our word for it:

I *LOVED* how easy it was to move my @getkirby sites from one server (@zerigo) to another (@macminicolo). The future is DB-less. Trust me.
-
@getkirby This is awesome! I'm finding it painful to build sites *without* using Kirby. Outstanding.
-
Kirby is the way to go. Easy set up, super fast if you have to modify anything and absolutely reliable.
-
After so many big web applications and sites we really love the downright simplicity of @getkirby.
-
Spent some time working with @getkirby last night for a new site – such a lean, clean, flexible, file-based CMS machine! <3
-
Quick. Well documented. Best support. With Kirby a basic site setup is done within 5 minutes. Brilliant.
-
Pretty sure I'm in love with @getkirby. Good gravy. Adios, Wordpress.
-
So far really enjoying @getkirby. It's like the simple CMS I've dreamed about for years.
-
I initially tried Kirby as a prototyping framework. It worked out so great I now build most of my sites with it. It's by far the best CMS I've used for multilingual content-sites.
