Content Pods
Portable content hosting for individuals.
Not every publisher needs a full CMS. Content Pods provide lightweight, portable content hosting - perfect for individuals, bloggers, and small publishers.
What is a Content Pod?
A Content Pod is a static export of your structured content - HTML, JSON, and media files - that can be hosted anywhere. It's your content, portable and verifiable.
Static files
Your content is exported as static files (HTML, JSON, images). No server-side processing needed. Host it anywhere.
Content signing
Every content item is signed with your Ed25519 publisher key, ensuring integrity and authenticity.
Manifest-based
A content manifest indexes all your content items, making them discoverable by Discovery Nodes.
CDN-ready
Static files work perfectly with CDNs for fast, global content delivery.
Hosting options
