Directus wraps any SQL database with a REST/GraphQL API and admin UI. Unlike traditional CMS, it works with your existing database schema.
Reviewer scorecard
“Issue-to-PR workflow is the right abstraction. The planning step prevents the 'just generate code' antipattern.”
“Point it at any SQL database and get an instant API + admin UI. The most flexible headless CMS approach.”
“Still limited in what it can handle. Works for straightforward issues but struggles with anything architecturally complex.”
“Works with your existing database instead of forcing its own schema. Unique value proposition in the CMS space.”
“This is where all development is heading — describe what you want, AI plans and implements. GitHub has distribution advantage.”
“Database-first CMS makes more sense than CMS-first databases. Directus got the architecture right.”
