Building contoro – A Headless CMS with Content Already Built In

Hey IndieHackers 👋

I’ve been working on CMS tools for a while, and one thing kept bugging me:

Why do devs have to define schemas before they can build anything? Why is "just getting started" always such a pain?

So I started building contoro – a developer-first headless CMS with ready-made content modules like jobs, events, and articles.

The goal:

✅ No setup

✅ Fully headless API

✅ Prebuilt structure so devs can code while the content team writes

The landing page is coming soon, and I’d love to hear your thoughts as I get closer to launch!

Follow along here if you're curious – I’ll share updates, code, and mistakes along the way.

Cheers!
