Summary
Cloudflare launched EmDash, a new content management system (CMS, software for building and managing websites) that it positions as a more secure alternative to WordPress, avoiding the cybersecurity problems caused by WordPress plugins. EmDash is fully open source under the MIT license (a permissive license allowing broad reuse and modification) and is designed for modern web development, including compatibility with AI agents, rather than the aging WordPress architecture.
