Django CMS

aid: django-cms
name: Django CMS
description: Django CMS is an open-source, enterprise-grade content management system built on Django and Python. It provides
  a REST API via the djangocms-rest package (built on Django REST Framework and drf-spectacular) that exposes pages, plugins,
  placeholders, navigation menus, breadcrumbs, and content structures as a browsable, read-only JSON/OpenAPI 3 interface.
  The API enables headless CMS deployments, allowing decoupled frontend applications — SPAs, static site generators, and mobile
  apps — to consume CMS-managed content with full multi-language and multi-site support.
