Thank you for the feedback! I understand the confusion. Kalmia is indeed a server-side CMS, but its Go-based architecture allows it to be lightweight and run on various platforms, from cloud servers to smaller setups like Raspberry Pi.

Think of Kalmia as similar to Docusaurus, but with a built-in GUI—one of the most requested features from the Docusaurus community (https://docusaurus.io/feature-requests/p/make-content-editin...). With Kalmia, non-technical users can contribute to documentation without needing to know Git or Markdown, making content editing much easier.

We store the documentation data in a database (Postgres or SQLite), and markdown/HTML is generated only when updates, deletions, or creations happen. The built HTML is stored in memory for fast access, ensuring performance remains smooth even for large docs.

We’re also working on features like export to zip and GitHub Pages support, so users can host their docs externally if needed.

Regarding SSO, it’s a great suggestion. We’re looking into integrating Single Sign-On (SSO) to streamline user management and improve security. This will help with easier adoption in environments that already use OIDC for authentication. (We already supported OAuth with Github/Microsoft/Google)

Thanks again for your thoughtful input, and I appreciate you checking out Kalmia!
