Quickstart
FireCMS Community and PRO are the self-hosted versions of FireCMS.
FireCMS Community provides all the functionality that has made FireCMS a reference in the CMS space.
FireCMS PRO includes all the most advanced features added in version 3.0, including:
- Collection Schema Editor UI
- Data export and import
- LLM autocompletion.
- Advanced Notion-style text editor
- User and roles management
It is designed for projects that require more control over the infrastructure, data and user management. It is a great option for companies that need to comply with specific regulations, or that have specific requirements that are not covered by the cloud or community versions.
FireCMS is a fully open-source project, and it is built on top of Firebase, Firestore, and Firebase Authentication. It can be also used with MongoDB Atlas, or any other backend by implementing the required interfaces. It is designed to be deployed on your own infrastructure, and it is fully customizable.
It allows you a high level of customization, and it is designed to be extended with your own components, authentication providers, custom views, dashboard, custom logic, you name it.
