Headless & API-First

Decouple your content from your presentation layer. Wagtail's GraphQL and REST APIs power fast front-ends in Next.js, Nuxt, or native mobile.

The CMS that gets out of the way.

Wagtail is the open-source CMS of choice for organisations that need real editorial flexibility without locking into a proprietary platform. Built on Django, it's endlessly extensible — and we know it inside out.

models.py
from wagtail.models import Page
from wagtail.fields import StreamField
from wagtail import blocks


class ArticlePage(Page):
    # Flexible body using StreamField
    body = StreamField([
        ('heading', blocks.CharBlock()),
        ('paragraph', blocks.RichTextBlock()),
        ('quote', blocks.BlockQuoteBlock()),
        ('image', ImageChooserBlock()),
        ('code', CodeBlock()),
    ])

    content_panels = Page.content_panels + [
        FieldPanel('body'),
    ]

    class Meta:
        verbose_name = 'Article'
        ordering = ['-first_published_at']

Focused, transparent delivery.

01

Discovery

We map your content model, user journeys, and editorial workflows before writing a single line of code.

02

Architecture

Django models, Wagtail page trees, API contracts — we design the data layer first so your site scales without rewrites.

03

Build & iterate

Fortnightly sprints with real deployments. You see working software, not slide decks.

04

Launch & support

Fully managed deploys, automated testing, monitoring, and ongoing retainer support.

Small team.
Big craft.

We've contributed to Wagtail core, spoken at DjangoCon, and maintain several open-source packages used by thousands of developers worldwide.
