These are some PHP CMSs that I am aware of, but not include in the article. However, they may not be fully headless though. In fact, my first CMS experience was WordPress, hence I know some of the alternatives. Eventually I went for a full JS/TS headless CMS though.

Hope these helps!

Thanks for the great list, some of theme i allready knew, but not all.
For my purpose, an API for a lot of different content types, they seem all not the right tool.
I although did a try with wordpress and ACF, but the fields are always stored in the post_meta table and i think that is mit performant with a lot of data.
Then i thougt, strapi or supabase is the way, but i cant host them on my webspace.
So i will try to use redbean PHP and write a lot of functions πŸ˜ƒ
