What is Gentics Mesh?

No Setup - No Dependencies Just download a single JAR file and get right down into frontend development using your favorite technologies. Gentics Mesh comes with an embedded graph database and Elasticsearch index. No external dependencies ... besides Java.

Complete RESTful API Tired of not being able to manipulate certain aspects of your CMS? The RESTful API allows you to invoke CRUD operations on ANY Gentics Mesh element - including user management & file upload.

GraphQL API Get what you asked for - nothing more! Enjoy using the GraphQL API as an efficient alternative to the RESTful approach for fetching content with a minimum JSON payload. Specify what fields should be retrieved and get deeply nested data sets.

User-Management for your Apps No need for doing user management in your app! Gentics Mesh comes with extensible user profiles and provides you with secure authentication and authorization on top of roles & permissions.

Dynamic Navigation Menus & Breadcrumbs No hard-coded routes! Organise your content in a content tree structure and leverage the power of automatic navigation menus and breadcrumbs without developer intervention!

Pretty URLs and Unbreakable Links Deliver your contents through pretty URLs and lean back as Gentics Mesh automatically resolves your links to fetch the right content items without further ado from you or your developer.

Elasticsearch out of the Box Gentics Mesh comes with a built-in search index - no need to setup a separate service. All your data is ready for queries, of course protected by our permission system.

Linear Scalability Our architecture allows for linear scalability so your application is able to grow along with your demands.

Open Source Gentics Mesh is free to be used in any project of your choice! Enjoy maximum freedom with Gentics Mesh being licensed under Apache License v2.0.

Professional Services We got your back! Take advantage of our fast support with SLAs, enlightening consulting & empowering trainings.
