Is Sveltia CMS a direct replacement for Decap CMS?

Yes, it is designed as a drop-in successor to Decap/Netlify CMS, often requiring only a single line change in the script source to migrate.

Does Sveltia CMS support TOML configuration?

Yes, as of version 0.119.0, Sveltia CMS supports TOML configuration, though YAML remains the recommended format for broader tooling support.

Can I use Sveltia CMS with React-based frameworks?

Absolutely. It is framework-agnostic and works with Astro, Gatsby, Next.js, and any static site generator by placing the admin files in the public directory.

Do I need a database for Sveltia CMS?

No, it is Git-backed, meaning all content is stored as Markdown, YAML, TOML, or JSON files directly in your repository.

Why do I need a Cloudflare Worker for authentication?

GitHub's OAuth flow requires a client secret that shouldn't be exposed in the browser; the Worker acts as a secure proxy to handle authentication.
