What is Relax
Relax is a powerful new generation CMS on top of React and Node.js which aims for a better way of building websites.
It features a live page builder based on components and a smart and easy way of binding dynamic data to them.
Our goal with Relax is to update the world with a new standard, having as the basic premise that anyone should be able to create a website without having to code.
We're currently working on releasing the beta version which should come up in December. If you want to collaborate in the meantime or just say anything join us at Relax Slack.
Installation
Dependencies
Relax uses sharp to resize images.
If you're using OS X and have libvips installed globally, e.g. via brew,
it may cause problems with sharp's compilation. You may need to uninstall
via brew remove libvips. See lovell/sharp#602
for more information.
You'll also need yarn and MongoDB.
How to Relax
Since we are yet to tag our first release, git clone this repository and run the following commands:
yarn
yarn build
yarn startBy default the application runs at port 8080. Go ahead and visit
http://localhost:8080/admin/init, here you can setup the first user and you're ready to relax.
Configuration
To configure the application you can use a .relaxrc file. You can place it
next to the application, on any parent folder, in your HOME folder, etc.
You can find a sample with the default values here.

Build and start
Development
While in development it's convenient to keep your application running while
watching for changes, for that you can run yarn dev.
The application will automatically restart when needed and keep your bundles up to date.
Production
To build your assets ready to go for production run yarn build and yarn start to start the application.
With Docker
To use our latest docker image you just have to have MongoDB running on a different container and link it to Relax.
To start MongoDB in the background you can run docker run -d --name mongo mongo.
Afterwards run docker run -p 8080:8080 --link mongo -it relax/relax to start
Relax on http://localhost:8080.
