Getting Started with Dune

Dune is a flat-file CMS built on Deno. Your content lives as files on disk — Markdown for prose, TSX for interactive pages — organized in folders, configured with YAML frontmatter.

No database. No admin panel (yet). Just files, a CLI, and a fast server.

What you'll need

  • Deno 2.x or later
  • A text editor
  • A terminal

That's it. No Node.js, no npm, no build tools.
