Questions before you adopt TeqCMS

Do I need an agent?

TeqCMS is designed for agent-managed publishing, but you can edit the same Markdown, templates, and CSS by hand. The CMS serves prepared files without an agent running.

Does it translate pages automatically?

No. People or external agents maintain locale files. TeqCMS renders their prepared content and does not call a translation API.

Does content require a database?

No. Content and templates are files. The standard host runs in Node.js; this is server rendering, not a static-site build step.

Can agents read the content?

Yes. Open this page’s English Markdown source, including authored metadata. The .md extension requests Markdown explicitly. Extensionless URLs select HTML for people or Markdown for clients that support it; URL selection explains language choices too.

What if a translation is missing?

The exact-locale HTML URL returns 404. It doesn't silently show another language. Without a locale prefix, HTML selects the first supported language matching Accept-Language, then the default. Neutral .md separately selects an unlocalized source, then English, then the default locale.

Can I use a visual admin panel?

TeqCMS does not supply one. Assess your contributors' editing workflow if they need visual content editing.

Is support required?

No. The engine is open source under Apache-2.0. My implementation help and ongoing support are optional.

Can I inspect a real implementation?

Yes. See the three applications and their repositories.
