Spina CMS is an easy to use CMS that features a clean interface without distractions. Live demo
Read the guide to learn more about how to use Spina. If you just want to get started, create a new Ruby on Rails app and follow these instructions:
Add the following line to your Gemfile:
gem 'spina'
Run the installer to start the setup process:
rails g spina:install [--silent] [--first-deploy]
The installer will help you create your first user interactively, unless you choose the optional --silent
flag : in this case, defaults will apply.
Then start rails s
and access Spina at /admin
.
Spina's admin UI requires Chrome/Edge 89+, or any other browser with basic ESM support (Safari/Firefox). This is due to a recent browser feature called import maps
and will be used in Rails 7 as the default way to deploy javascript assets.
Browser support for websites built with Spina is entirely up to the developer. Spina doesn't force you to build your frontend a certain way.
