Desktop visual CMS that keeps your site as files, with AI built in
Splitleaf is a desktop app for Mac and Windows that combines a visual Designer, a CMS and an AI agent. The site is a folder of HTML, CSS and Markdown with Git history, published as static pages to any host you choose.
Splitleaf runs on your Mac or Windows PC. Pages, styles, components and CMS content are files in a folder, every publish is a commit to your own GitHub repository, and the published site is plain static HTML and CSS on a host you choose.
