Decap CMS is a single-page app that you pull into the/admin part of your site.

It presents a clean UI for editing content stored in a Git repository.

You setup a YAML config to describe the content model of your site, and typicallytweak the main layout of the CMS a bit to fit your own site.

When a user navigates to/admin/ they'll be prompted to log in, and once authenticatedthey'll be able to create new content or edit existing content.

The Decap CMS can be used in two different ways.

• A Quick and easy install, that requires you to create a single HTML file and a configuration file. All the CMS JavaScript and CSS are loaded from a CDN.To learn more about this installation method, refer to theQuick Start Guide
• A complete, more complex install, that gives you more flexibility but requires that you use a static site builder with a build system that supports npm packages.
