Publishing

v0.16.0

Database-backed CMS for blogs and docs, multi-language and versioned

Requires AI

Install Publishing

Publishing is PhoenixKit’s CMS: blogs, news, documentation and FAQs, stored in your own PostgreSQL database and written in a collaborative editor.

Each group is either dated (news, changelogs: /news/2026-11-07) or slug-based (docs: /docs/getting-started), with versions, translations per language, categories, RSS feeds and a sitemap entry for every public page. Posts can embed components — images, galleries, calls to action, video — and AI can translate them in the background.

This page’s text is itself a Publishing post: the module-texts group, post slug publishing. Edit it in the admin and the page changes, with no deploy.

Use it when

  • You need a blog, news section or documentation pages inside your Phoenix app
  • Your content must exist in several languages with version history
