Django CMS

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.

Django CMS publishes 7 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Breadcrumbs API, Health API, Languages API, and 4 more. Tagged areas include CMS, Content Management, Django, Python, and Headless CMS.

The Django CMS catalog on APIs.io includes 1 JSON-LD context and 1 Spectral governance ruleset.

Django CMS’s developer surface includes documentation, engineering blog, pricing, and 13 more developer resources.

Open Source Surface applies to this provider. This product is open source and we read its repository directly, so Open Source Surface carries 10 points of the composite. It is scored from what the repository actually publishes — a security policy, a contribution guide, a release history, a code of conduct — read live from the provider rather than inferred from our own catalog pointers. This facet adds; nothing was taken away to make room for it. An open-source project is not excused from the commercial facets, because exemption would strip it of the points it does earn. If we have the wrong repository, or this product is not open source, say so on your provider repo and we will drop the facet rather than have you publish against it.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics does not apply to this provider. The published contracts declare no write operations, and a read-only API cannot create-or-update. The facet is excluded from this provider's denominator entirely — not scored zero. A reference or data API is not deficient for being unable to upsert.

The six quality facets above are damped to 90 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 10. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 90% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/django-cms: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
