Things to know about this demo site
Welcome to the Wagtail Demo Site!
If you've gotten this far, congratulations - you're running an instance of a killer content management system written for and on top of Django, the framework for perfectionists with deadlines.
What does Wagtail get you that Django alone does not?
- Focus on content creators/managers, rather than developers (but developer-friendly!)
- "Page-centric" content modeling
- Beautiful, modern, intuitive user interface optimized for content people
- Super-powerful hierarchical content management ("content trees")
- User- and group-based permissions system attached to content hierarchies
- Flexible image resizing with a ton of image display helpers
- Innovative "StreamFields" as an alternative to traditional "anything goes" rich text fields
- Intuitive choosers for embedded Pages, Images, Documents and other content
- Native integration with ElasticSearch to help you build powerful search features
- Template tags to help create image renditions, smart links, and to navigate content trees
