The HMGi Platform
The platform this site runs on.
A complete website platform packaged as one deployable unit. A full CMS with an inline, click-to-edit editor, first-party analytics with no third-party trackers, a lead pipeline, and an admin dashboard, all in a single container a non-engineer can run.
A lot of "custom" websites are really a page builder plus a pile of third-party scripts. This is the opposite. The whole thing, the public site, the content system, the analytics, and the lead capture, is one small stack you own and can host yourself.
The editor is the part people remember. You click any word or image on the live site and change it in place. No separate admin form, no developer, no waiting. You are reading a page it serves right now.
- An inline, click-to-edit visual editor: change the live site in place.
- First-party analytics and lead capture, with no third-party trackers.
- Two-factor sign-in, cross-site-request-forgery protection, and token auth.
- Single-container packaging: web server, API, database, and continuous backup in one deployable unit.
- Real-time updates in the admin dashboard.
A Node and Fastify API sits over SQLite, fronted by nginx and backed up continuously, all inside one Docker container. The admin app is dependency-free vanilla JavaScript. Because it is one unit, deploying a new client site is close to a single command rather than a week of wiring services together.

Real figures from the build, not marketing math.
