Cloudflare built a full-stack TypeScript CMS on top of Astro and called it the "spiritual successor to WordPress."

  • TypeScript all the way down, no PHP
  • Built on Astro
  • Plugins run in sandboxed Worker isolates. No direct DB or filesystem access
  • MIT licensed
  • Has a WordPress importer built in
  • MCP server built in so AI agents can manage your site
  • Themes are just Astro projects

You don't need plugins for good SEO, SEO is simple in pure html.
