We are excited to introduce NomaCMS, a headless content platform built for teams that want structured content, a clean API, and a real place for AI inside their workflow. This post walks through what NomaCMS is and what you can do with it today.
What NomaCMS is
NomaCMS is a headless CMS. Your content lives in a structured layer, and your applications read and write it through a REST API or our JavaScript SDK. The dashboard at app.nomacms.com is where you model your content, create entries, upload assets, manage locales, and configure webhooks. Your frontend stays completely separate, which means you can ship the same content to a website, a mobile app, an internal tool, or anywhere else that can make an HTTP request.
Structured content modeling
Content in NomaCMS is organized into collections, and each collection has its own fields. A collection can be a list, like blog posts or products, or a singleton, like a homepage or a settings record. Fields cover the types you would expect from a modern CMS, including text, long text, rich text, slug, email, password, number, enumeration, boolean, color, date, time, datetime, media, relation, JSON, and group. That means you can model a simple blog or a more involved product catalog without reaching for workarounds.
Entries support draft and published states, bulk create, update, and delete, and flexible filtering when you list them.
A REST API and a typed JavaScript SDK
Every project gets a REST API secured with API keys. On top of that, the @nomacms/js-sdk package gives you a typed client with grouped methods for projects, collections, fields, content, assets, and webhooks. A minimal setup looks like this:
import { createClient } from "@nomacms/js-sdk"
const noma = createClient({
projectId: process.env.NOMA_PROJECT_ID,
apiKey: process.env.NOMA_API_KEY,
})
const posts = await noma.content.list("posts")
The SDK maps API errors to typed exceptions and handles details like the project-id header for you, so you can focus on your application.
Assets, webhooks, and localization
The asset library handles file uploads, including direct and multipart uploads for large files, plus bulk upload and bulk metadata updates. Webhooks let you react to content and auth events, with delivery logs you can inspect when something looks off.
For multilingual projects, you can define locales at the project level, pick a default, and link translated entries together so your frontend can navigate between them cleanly.
Project authentication for your users
NomaCMS also handles end-user authentication for your application. Your users can sign up with email and password or sign in with social providers, refresh their sessions, and manage their own per-user API keys. Everything is scoped to the project, so you do not need to stand up a separate auth service just to let users log in to the app you are building on top of NomaCMS.
Built-in AI, without the lock-in
AI shows up in three clear places.
Inside the dashboard, the Noma AI Assistant can help you create projects, build collections, manage entries, and navigate the product through conversation. In any text or rich text field, inline tools let you generate, rewrite, expand, summarize, fix grammar, or translate content on the spot. And when it is time to translate a whole entry, one click can move it into another locale and link the translations together.
AI coding tools, first class
If you work in Cursor, Claude Code, or Windsurf, our MCP server plugs your editor straight into your project. It exposes tools for project, collection, field, content, asset, and webhook management, so you can say what you want in plain language and have it show up in your CMS.
To go further, the Noma Agent Skills package teaches your coding assistant how to use the SDK, follow our auth patterns, and integrate with Next.js, Nuxt, and Astro, so you spend less time explaining the basics every time you start a task.
Getting started
If you want to try it out, head to app.nomacms.com, create a project, install the SDK, and fetch your first entries. We will be sharing more guides and updates here on the blog as we roll out new features. Thanks for checking out NomaCMS.
