MaglevCMS is a visual website editor designed to operate inside an existing Rails application. It lets content editors update public-facing pages without changing application templates or maintaining a separate content management service. Site content is rendered through the host application’s normal views, routes and layouts.
Developers define the visual sections, blocks and themes available to editors, retaining control over the site’s appearance and behaviour. The open source edition is intended for a single site within an application; multi-site capabilities are associated with the separate commercial offering.
A typical use is a product site whose public design belongs to developers but whose marketing copy and images change frequently. Editors work in the existing application instead of administering a separate website.
This is free and open source software.
