Show HN: SonicJS – Open-Source Headless CMS for Cloudflare Workers

[ldc0618]

Hi HN! I'm Lane, and I've been building SonicJS for 7+ years (3,900+ commits).

SonicJS is a headless CMS built specifically for Cloudflare Workers. It runs on the edge in 300+ data centers with sub-100ms response times globally.

Why I built this: - Traditional CMS platforms are slow and centralized - Edge computing is the future but there wasn't a good CMS for it - Wanted TypeScript-first with real type safety

Technical highlights: - 6x faster than Node/Express in benchmarks - Zero cold starts (V8 isolates) - SQLite at the edge via Cloudflare D1 - Built on Hono.js framework - Advanced plugin system - Full admin UI included

Get started: `npx create-sonicjs my-app`

It's MIT licensed and 100% open source. Would love feedback from the HN community - especially on performance, architecture decisions, or features you'd want to see.
