Why BinaryCMS exists
We were tired of bloated CMS platforms that need a team to configure, an ops engineer to maintain, and a credit card to keep running.
BinaryCMS is our answer: a single Go binary that contains everything — the server, the database engine, the admin panel, the theme system, and the plugin runtime. Download it, run it, publish. That's it.

Our values
Speed
Every millisecond matters. Go's compiled nature means BinaryCMS responds in single-digit milliseconds.
Simplicity
One binary, one command, one config. No Kubernetes, no microservices, no PhD required.
Security
Security headers, CSRF protection, and encrypted sessions are built into the core, not bolted on.
Freedom
MIT licensed, self-hosted, no vendor lock-in. Your data, your server, your rules.
