Overview

How LeanCMS brings together agentic workflows, git-native development and simple content editing

Modular Design System

Highly flexible, easy to manage

A flexible site structure designed for rapid production. Global brand defaults control colours, typography and spacing across the system, with progressive customisation per page giving users full control over site elements.

Performance is built in, not bolted on

No page builders, no bloated plugins, no render-blocking scripts. LeanCMS generates clean, minimal HTML with only the CSS and JS each page actually needs.

The result is consistently high PageSpeed scores with zero optimisation plugins required.

How It Works

Agent Assisted Workflow

  • Create Agent creates or updates page layouts from content briefs, brand guidelines and source material.
  • Gate Changes are committed to Git, reviewed, and released as a plugin update.
  • Sync Layouts auto-sync to the site or queue for admin approval before going live.
  • Edit Client edits take priority — your changes are preserved and never overwritten.

Easy for non-technical users

Update text & images without breaking your site

No learning curve

Editors use the familiar WordPress tools they already know. No new interface to learn, no page builder to wrestle with.

Git-native for developers

Layouts are JSON files in your repo. Push changes, tag a release, and the plugin update delivers them to the site. Full version history, branching, and code review built into your workflow.
