Dynamic CMS Architecture
Designing configurable content platforms where content types, fields, sections, journeys and presentation are managed through the CMS.
Capability statementThis CMS itself is the proof: content types, journeys, relationships and homepage sections are all rows in a database, not hardcoded models — adding Expertise and Skills as new types required no schema change.
Full description
I work on CMS architectures that avoid hardcoded content models and rigid frontend sections. Content types, fields, permalinks, relationships, homepage sections and presentation rules can be configured from the CMS, while the frontend and reasoning layer consume a generic schema.
Evidence standard
Strengths
- Generic content-type registry (content types/content type fields/content items) with zero hardcoded per-type models
- A generic content relationships table used for every relationship, in either direction
Current focus
Consolidating overlapping content types (Discoveries, Guides, Resources, Builds) into a cleaner set without losing any existing content.
