Webstudio delivers a professional-grade visual website builder that outputs semantic HTML and clean CSS without inline style pollution or JavaScript-heavy render paths. The live canvas editor provides direct manipulation of all CSS properties — flexbox, grid, spacing, typography, transforms, and filters — with real-time preview across responsive breakpoints. The component system supports reusable instances with variants and overrides, while design tokens maintain consistent colors, fonts, and spacing across the entire site. Data bindings connect to external content sources through native integrations with Strapi and Supabase, plus a generic CMS interface for any REST API backend. The Scroll Timeline API powers animations at 120 FPS off the main thread, with presets for rotate, scale, translate, opacity, color, and filter effects. Projects build as dynamic Remix applications with server-side rendering or export as static HTML, CSS, and JavaScript files. The Webstudio CLI generates Docker-ready builds that run a Node.js server on port 3000, with Nginx reverse proxy configuration for SSL termination via Let's Encrypt. The builder requires minimum 1 GB RAM and 1 CPU core for Docker builds. MCP integration enables AI agents to create and modify websites programmatically. On RepoCloud, deploy Webstudio projects on a dedicated VPS with root SSH access, persistent storage, and complete control over your hosting, custom domains, and deployment pipeline, all under the AGPL-3.0 license.

Roughly 43% of all websites and over 60% of the CMS market run on WordPress - the GPL-licensed platform that scales from a personal blog to publishing operations and WooCommerce stores. The Gutenberg block editor composes pages from reusable blocks, and full site editing extends block control to headers, footers, and templates; tens of thousands of plugins and themes cover essentially every capability a site might need, from SEO and caching to membership and e-commerce. WordPress 7.0 "Armstrong" marks the platform's biggest structural update since Gutenberg itself: a React-based DataViews admin replaces the legacy list tables with instant filtering, a provider-agnostic AI Client API ships with connectors for OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google, media processing moves into the browser via WebAssembly, and a universal Font Library manages typography across block, hybrid, and classic themes with local hosting for GDPR compliance. New Breadcrumbs, Icons, and lightbox Gallery blocks reduce plugin dependence, and server-side PHP block registration simplifies development. The REST API and WP-CLI make it automatable end to end. Self-hosting is what WordPress was designed for: your content, database, plugin choices, and upgrade schedule stay entirely under your control, free of wordpress.com plan limits.

Smartstore is a self-hosted eCommerce platform that lets one install run several multilingual, multi-currency storefronts, with a drag-and-drop page builder and built-in AI writing tools. The catalog takes unlimited products and categories, with variants, bundles, grouped and downloadable products, tier pricing, and cross-selling, while faceted search keeps large assortments easy to filter. Shoppers get a responsive storefront with a streamlined checkout, reviews, wishlists, and wallet or gift-card payments; staff get order, shipment, and return handling plus a dashboard with sales statistics and bestseller lists. Marketing tools cover discounts, coupons, reward points, newsletters, affiliates, a blog, and forums, and the visual Rule Builder grants discounts, offers shipping and payment methods, and assigns customers to roles automatically. AI helpers draft product descriptions and meta tags with OpenAI, Gemini, Claude, DeepSeek, or a self-hosted Ollama model, and image tools create or edit pictures. A Media Manager organizes images and files in folders with filters and metadata. Import and export profiles move catalogs in and out on a schedule, a REST API connects other systems, and tree-based permissions decide which staff roles may do what. The Docker image starts a browser installer that connects to MySQL, PostgreSQL, or SQL Server. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.

nopCommerce is a self-hosted shopping cart and merchant back office for selling physical goods, downloads, rentals, and gift cards from a storefront you fully control. The catalog covers simple, grouped, downloadable, rental, recurring, and gift card products, with categories, manufacturers, tier prices, product and specification attributes, stock tracking, and Excel import with Excel or XML export. Shoppers get a one-page checkout, wishlists, product comparison, reviews, reward points, gift card redemption, and return requests. Run several stores or outside vendors from a single back office; vendors can apply for accounts and manage their own products, orders, and shipments. Orders move through status changes, offline refunds, shipments, recurring payments, and PDF invoices, while built-in reports surface bestsellers, low stock, country sales, and top-spending customers. Multiple languages and currencies, tax and shipping providers, warehouses, pickup points, and EU Omnibus and GDPR settings support selling abroad. Discounts, affiliates, newsletters, campaigns, SEO-friendly page names, blog, news, forums, and polls cover promotion and content.

Design a website on a canvas, manage its content in spreadsheet-style tables, and publish plain HTML, all from one self-hosted Instatic server. Designers see several breakpoint frames side by side, or switch to live mode and edit one full-size page in place. A built-in design system expands one brand color into a full shade scale, generates fluid type and spacing scales, and writes the utility classes into a single small stylesheet. Reusable Visual Components take typed parameters and named slots, templates set site-wide or per-post-type layouts, and loops repeat a design over posts or media. Editors work in custom post types and data tables, and posts move through draft, scheduled, and published states. Forms on the site save their submissions to tables of your own. An AI agent can do the building, placing real, editable nodes on the canvas using Claude, OpenAI, OpenRouter, or Ollama with your own key, and an MCP connector lets Claude, ChatGPT, and other remote agents work on the site too. Super Import converts a whole static site into pages, styles, tokens, and media. Teams get roles built from 38 capabilities, TOTP two-factor sign-in, and an append-only audit log, plus site branches with private copies, shareable preview links, and merge review. Everything published is baked to plain HTML and CSS on disk. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console.

GrandNode lets you run one shop, a dozen regional storefronts, or a full marketplace from a single installation, with a back office for every role involved. Each store gets its own domain, theme, currencies, languages, and settings, and a store manager panel limits staff to the catalog, orders, and customers of their own store. Outside sellers join through a vendor panel where they manage their own products and orders. The catalog handles attributes and combinations, bundles, grouped items, downloads, date-based reservations, and auctions. B2B selling adds customer groups, tier prices, sales employees, and approvals. Checkout accepts payments through plugins such as Stripe Checkout, Braintree, and cash on delivery, with shipping by fixed rate, weight, or pickup point and tax rules by country, state, or zip code. Marketing tools include coupon codes, discount rules, loyalty points, gift vouchers, customer segments, newsletter campaigns, and push notifications. Clean URLs, sitemaps, and structured data with price and availability help search engines read your products. Pages, blog posts, news, and sliders cover content, and a REST API serves headless storefronts and ERP or CRM integrations. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. GPL-3.0 licensed.

Vvveb, an open-source CMS with a drag-and-drop page builder and a built-in store, runs a blog, a portfolio, and a webshop from one dashboard, with every page edited visually on a true WYSIWYG canvas. Reusable blocks, page revisions, a code editor, and an optional AI assistant plugin sit alongside media management, custom fields, custom posts, and custom products that shape content well beyond plain pages. The store handles one-page checkout, subscriptions, digital downloads, vouchers, coupons, product options, attributes, variants, reviews, and Q&A across multiple payment methods and currencies. Content can be published in several languages, the admin interface switches with language packs, many sites or subdomains share one installation, and action-level permissions are assigned to each user role. A bundled SEO plugin generates sitemaps, robots.txt, Open Graph tags, hreflang links, and schema markup, and hybrid headless mode serves the same content to any frontend through GraphQL and REST endpoints. A randomized admin login URL, two-factor authentication, brute-force defenses, and a built-in integrity check guard the dashboard, and manual or automatic backups plus import and export tools cover recovery and migration. Any HTML template converts into a theme in minutes, a demo importer loads sample content for a fast start, and plugins and themes install with one click from the admin dashboard. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.

One admin panel, many storefronts: Magento Open Source is a free ecommerce platform for selling online under separate domains, category trees, languages, and currencies from a single install. Catalog managers create simple, configurable, grouped, virtual, bundle, and downloadable products and organize them with categories and attribute sets. Merchandisers assemble CMS pages, blocks, and product and category content in Page Builder by dragging rows, columns, tabs, banners, sliders, videos, and product lists onto a visual stage. Catalog price rules and cart price rules with coupon codes drive promotions, and customer groups such as Wholesale and Retailer can get targeted discounts and their own tax class. Shoppers browse the Luma storefront theme and check out as guests or with accounts. Staff then take each order through invoice, shipment, and credit memo, while Multi-Source Inventory tracks stock across warehouses, stores, and drop shippers. Built-in sales, customer, and product reports show what sells, and Login as Customer lets permitted staff view the storefront as an opted-in shopper sees it. Import and export tools move products and customers in bulk, and the REST and GraphQL APIs let ERPs, shipping tools, and headless front ends read and write store data.

An online store you own end to end: OpenCart bundles the storefront, product catalog, checkout, and admin panel into one self-hosted install with no monthly software fee. Products take options and attributes, and master products can spawn variants that override price, SKU, and stock level. Unlimited categories, filters, reviews and ratings, coupons, specials, and reward points help shoppers find items and return for more. Guests and registered customers can check out by bank transfer, cheque or money order, or cash on delivery; subscription plans with trial periods handle recurring orders, and more gateways and carriers install from the extension marketplace. Shipping rules include flat-rate, free, per-item, pickup, and weight-based options. Tax classes, geo zones, and multiple currencies with automatic rate updates support selling abroad. One admin interface manages several stores, each with its own theme, layout, and language settings, and user groups control who may edit what.

Behind a storefront you own sits PrestaShop, an open-source e-commerce platform that runs the catalog, the checkout, and the order desk. Products carry size and color combinations, features, brands, suppliers, and categories, CSV import loads products and customers in bulk, and Extra Properties adds custom fields with their own types to products, customers, and orders. The bundled One Page Checkout module, switched on from the back office, puts every checkout step on a guest-first page, and the four-page flow stays available. Hummingbird, the default theme, presents a mobile-optimized, accessibility-minded storefront, and native WebP and AVIF image support helps pages load faster. Staff handle orders, invoices, credit slips, abandoned carts, and returns, create orders by hand, and answer shoppers from the customer service page. Carriers, payment methods, taxes, currencies, languages, and shipping zones are configured in the back office, multistore runs several shops with separate settings, and the Update Assistant guides upgrades through backup, update, and restore. In the Classic edition, an Ask AI assistant answers questions from real store data and runs plain-language requests after asking your approval, using the provider and API key you connect. The Admin API connects ERP, order management, PIM, and marketing automation tools through scoped OAuth clients, and Addons marketplace modules extend the shop.

WordPress without Gutenberg: ClassicPress, the community-led fork, keeps the TinyMCE classic editor as the default and strips the block editor and Full Site Editing out of core entirely. The result is roughly half WordPress's size - obsolete libraries like jQueryUI, Thickbox, and Flash support are gone, replaced by native HTML5 elements and modern alternatives like SortableJS - which translates to a measurably faster admin and a leaner attack surface. Forked from WordPress 6.2, it remains compatible with the vast plugin and theme ecosystem targeting that lineage (anything not requiring blocks generally works, helped by a blocks-compatibility mode), and the PHP-first WordPress API developers have used for over a decade works unchanged - no React required to extend your CMS. The fork adds its own improvements: built-in media categories and tags with bulk editing, revision management that lets you prune database bloat, native HTML5 dialogs for accessible touch-friendly menus, and recent releases bring APCu object-cache support, vanilla-JS core widgets, and performant translations. Governance is democratic and community-driven rather than corporate. For content sites, business sites, and blogs where the classic editing workflow is the feature, ClassicPress is stability as a philosophy.
