tabcms - A CMS that runs completely in your browser.

This was a fun project I worked on for about a week. I thought that, given how far web browsers have gotten, it should be possible to have a CMS completely in your browser. So, this project is an example of how that's possible.

The code isn't the best, but it doesn't need to be. It should be a fun read for anyone interested in IndexedDB and static site compilation in-browser.

Install

Assets are committed to the repository, so after git cloning you should be able to open index.html right in your browser. This is how I test locally!

Alternatively, you can run npm install && npm start to start a local server.

Coding standards

Before committing code, make sure to run npm run prettier to clean up coding standards.

Updating assets

If you update dependencies, run npm install && npm run build-assets. This just copies stuff out of dist in node_modules/*, there are no compilation steps for this project.

CKEditor is another beast. To update that, visit their website and use the interactive custom build generator. Select the following plugins:

  • Autoformat
  • Block quote
  • Bold
  • Heading
  • Image
  • Image caption
  • Image style
  • Image toolbar
  • Image upload
  • Indent
  • Italic
  • Link
  • List
  • Media embed
  • Paste from Office
  • Table
  • Table toolbar
  • Text transformation
  • Alignment
  • Code
  • Code block
  • Horizontal line
  • Image resize
  • Image insert
  • Indent block
  • List style
  • Media embed toolbar
  • Remove format
  • Strikethrough
  • Subscript
  • Superscript
  • Underline

Phew!
