Invert FAQs

Question 1

What is Invert and how does it work?

Accepted Answer

Invert is a database-less, adapter-driven content presentation layer built on Astro. It pulls content from various sources (JSON, Markdown, GitHub, AI via MCP) using 'adapters', normalizes it into a consistent JSON shape, and renders it as high-performance static sites.

Question 2

What are the main benefits of using Invert for content presentation?

Accepted Answer

Invert offers maximum flexibility by allowing you to mix and match content sources, a database-less and headless architecture, unified content normalization, automatic routing, and fast static site generation with Astro, all without being opinionated about your content's origin.

Question 3

What kind of content sources can Invert connect to?

Accepted Answer

Invert can connect to diverse content sources including local JSON and Markdown files, remote GitHub repositories, and AI tools via its integrated Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. Planned integrations include WordPress, Drupal, and other generic HTTP APIs.

Question 4

Can I use AI to manage content with Invert?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Invert features an integrated MCP server that allows AI tools to create, read, update, and search content. AI-driven write operations are directed to JSON files, enabling structured content generation and modification by AI.

Question 5

Does Invert replace my existing Content Management System (CMS)?

Accepted Answer

No, Invert doesn't replace your CMS. It acts as a flexible presentation layer that sits in front of any content source, including traditional CMS platforms, git repositories, or even no CMS at all. It separates content management from content display.
