The open source promise
b10cks is open source under AGPLv3. Not a trimmed-down community edition, the platform itself. If we ever take it somewhere you don't want to go, you already have everything you need to go your own way.
AGPLv3. Self-hosted platform fee €0 / month.
The problem it removes
With a closed CMS, an update is a roll of the dice. A workflow you depend on can change and you have no way to look, no way to patch, no way to leave with your setup intact. You file a ticket and wait.
Open source does not make us better people. It makes us accountable. The code is public, so the gap between what we say and what we ship is public too.
Why we gave it away
A content platform outlives the site it was built for.
We did not open the source to look generous. We did it because a roadmap is easy to write and hard to keep, and because the tools teams depend on keep quietly getting worse while nobody can do anything about it.
AGPLv3 is the part that matters. It means the platform stays open, including for anyone who builds a business on top of it. We make our money running the hosted product well, not by holding the exit shut. The self-hosted version is the same platform: every feature, every locale, unlimited editors, platform fee €0 / month.
That is an uncomfortable way to run a company. It is also the only version of this we wanted to build.
You should not have to trust us. You should be able to check.
Self-host b10cks
The open-source promise is worth little if running it yourself is a project of its own. It is one command. From there it is the same platform on your own server, with your content and your infrastructure.

Self-hosted
Coders Cantina nació de la creencia de que la tecnología debe servir al florecimiento humano, no solo a métricas de eficiencia. Eso suena abstracto hasta que ves a tu equipo pasar media jornada peleándose con un CMS que se rompió en una actualización silenciosa, o perder dos semanas en una migración de proveedor porque tu antiguo proveedor retenía tu contenido en un formato propietario.
Construimos con el instinto del artesano: calidad por encima de velocidad, profundidad por encima de métricas superficiales, relaciones genuinas por encima de relaciones transaccionales. El código abierto no es solo una decisión de licencia para nosotros: es la expresión estructural de esos valores. Significa que se nos puede exigir el estándar que decimos defender.
La «tecnología con alma» empieza con software en el que puedes confiar porque puedes leerlo.

Your infrastructure and hosting costs apply. Move between Cloud and self-hosted.
Start where you like
Both doors lead to the same platform. Start free in the Cloud and move to your own server later, or clone the repository and decide for yourself before you commit anything.
