Typemill is an open-source, flat-file content management system that lets you create websites and eBooks entirely from Markdown files — no database required. Built on Slim PHP, Vue.js, and Tailwind CSS, it delivers a modern, fast, and secure experience. It offers both a visual block editor and a raw Markdown editor, making it author-friendly and developer-friendly. Developers can extend it with Twig templates, Symfony events, and YAML definitions, and there is a growing ecosystem of plugins and themes.
