An admin anyone can pick up. It isn't built yet.

What’s true today

There’s no admin screen in v0.1.0. You manage content types, users and documents over HTTP or with the tachyon command, and that’s the whole interface. I’d rather say so here than show you a mockup and let you guess.

The test it has to pass

Someone who has only ever used WordPress should be able to sit down and run a site with it, without training: adding a content type, writing a post, scheduling it. If that person needs a manual, it isn’t finished.

What’s already underneath

Some of the admin’s groundwork ships today, because it lives in the schema:

• Rows, collapsible sections and tabs decide how fields will sit on the editing screen, without changing your data.
• Every field can carry a description, a placeholder, a place in the sidebar or a condition for when it shows.
• GET /api/access tells each person what they may do, so the admin can hide a button rather than let it fail.

What comes with it

Sign-in, API keys and access rules shipped in v0.1.0, so the admin will have something to sign in to. Before the admin itself come rich text and blocks, then drafts, versions and scheduled publishing, then media, live preview and authoring tools such as Markdown import. The admin follows those.

There are no dates yet. The roadmap shows the order.
