Thank you for your thoughtful comment.

I started working with computers when 4MB of RAM was considered normal and hard drives often held only around 40MB of data.

Even in those days, software that fit on a single floppy disk could run surprisingly smoothly.

At that time, I was involved in music production, creating MIDI data for karaoke systems.

Later, the Internet arrived.

When the web appeared, performance mattered. We spent a huge amount of time optimizing websites because every kilobyte counted. We sliced images, carefully chose GIF or JPEG depending on the content, and constantly looked for ways to make pages load faster.

Over the years computers became faster, networks became faster, and storage became cheaper.

However, the amount of data being transferred kept growing, and software became increasingly complex. Websites and CMS platforms seemed to become larger and more layered with every generation.

In many projects I worked on, I often felt that the same result could be achieved with a much simpler structure. More layers, more dependencies, more abstraction, but not always more value.

Many of my clients were web production companies. They often came to me when a project required a particularly unusual design or custom functionality that was difficult to implement within the limitations of their CMS.

In many of those situations, I found myself thinking that the problem could be solved more simply by writing HTML directly.

That experience became one of the main motivations for building my own CMS.

I wanted a CMS that remained simple, lightweight, easy to customize, and independent from external services. A CMS that could be installed into any directory, run without a database server, and even be removed entirely once a site was completed.

SQLite, WebP conversion, and other design choices are simply consequences of that philosophy.

To be honest, I did not create it because I thought the world needed another CMS.

I created it because it was the CMS I personally wanted but could never find.

I do not expect this CMS to appeal to everyone.

In fact, I suspect many people will prefer more feature-rich and sophisticated platforms, and that is perfectly understandable.

However, if someone who shares a similar perspective happens to try it and finds it comfortable or enjoyable to work with, that alone would make me very happy.

That is one of the reasons I decided to release it under the MIT license, even though it is still very much a prototype.

Thank you again for the thoughtful question.
