/ About /

Directus is a headless CMS and backend platform designed for developers building custom applications. It allows teams to model data visually, manage digital assets, and expose content through instant GraphQL and REST APIs on top of any SQL database. An intuitive Studio interface provides policy-based access control and a workspace that non-technical users can also navigate.

/ How it works /

Directus wraps any SQL database with a visual data modeling Studio and automatically generates GraphQL and REST APIs, along with role-based access control and asset management.
