EmDash is a full-stack TypeScript CMS based on Astro; the spiritual successor to WordPress
What emdash is
A full-stack TypeScript CMS built on Astro and Cloudflare. EmDash takes the ideas that made WordPress dominant -- extensibility, admin UX, a plugin ecosystem -- and rebuilds them on serverless, type-safe foundations. Plugins run in sandboxed Worker isolates, solving the fundamental security problem with WordPress's plugin architecture.

Transcript
96% of WordPress hacks come from plugins. M- fix this for free. M- is a full-stack TypeScript CMS that sandboxed every plugin in isolated workers, meaning no plugin can ever access your database or user data. It's built on Astro and Cloudflare, already hitting nearly 9,000 stars in just 10 days. While Contentful charges $39 a month for basic hosting, M- gives you enterprise-grade security and a complete admin panel at zero cost. Star it if this saved you money.
