PeekoCMS – A Visual CMS / Website Building Platform with AI

Hey folks, I've been working on a small project for the last year or so and figured it was time to share. It's a visual CMS / HTML editing platform with support for Handlebars templating, AI, and visual editing. Features: - Template library - Undo / Redo editor history - Full Monaco code editor in the browser - Localization - Tagged page versions / revisions that can be toggled site-wide - AI Prompting / Editing selections - Custom Web Component Prop / Form Integration - Upload global variables to S3 endpoint and render them in Handlebars I spent ~10 years building websites for a large international cosmetics conglomerate. I saw the struggles and challenges they faced building templates and components that could be integrated with their CMS so non technical users could use it too. I'm trying to build a website builder that isn't super constrained like Wix/Squarespace but still being easy to use. I think in the age of AI, we need to revisit how we give non technical users the ability to build and publish webpages. While my project is not nearly as complete as I would like, it does have a lot of powerful features, including support for automatic UI generation with StencilJS docs. For example, to have a select dropdown when your web component is selected, annotate your Prop with the following: /** * Options that will determine whether the content sits below the media slot or overlapped above. * @type Select * @options below * @options above * @responsive */ @Prop() contentPosition = 'below|above'; By annotating your component props and exporting the Doc JSON from StencilJS, you can create an easy to use UI for all your custom components. If this would be useful for your marketing / ecommerce / project let me know!
