Introduction

Whitepapper is a markdown-first content system for developers who want control over writing, organization, publishing, and distribution without a heavy CMS.

You write in Markdown. Whitepapper handles project and collection structure, public publishing, SEO metadata wiring, and API access for your own frontend.

Who is Whitepapper for?

Whitepapper is built for developers who:

  • Want to write and manage content in Markdown without a heavy CMS
  • Need a structured hierarchy for projects and collections
  • Want SEO metadata control for public pages
  • Want to distribute content to Hashnode and Dev.to without rewriting
  • Want to power their own frontend with a project-scoped API

What problems does it solve?

Writing and organization are fragmented. Whitepapper gives you a clean content hierarchy without custom backend work.

SEO is usually bolted on late. Whitepapper treats metadata as a first-class part of each paper.

Cross-posting is repetitive. Write once and distribute from the same editor.

Serving content in your own app usually needs extra backend work. Whitepapper's Dev API gives you project-scoped read access out of the box.

Content hierarchy

  • User
  • Standalone papers
  • Projects
  • Project standalone papers
  • Collections
  • Collection papers

A paper is the core content unit. A collection groups related papers inside a project. A project is the top-level container with visibility and API key scope.
