## What it is
FeinCMS is an extensible Django-based content management system and CMS building toolkit. It knows nothing about content itself, instead letting developers define custom content types and regions with a drag-and-drop admin interface.

## Use cases
- build a custom django cms
- add editable content blocks to django pages
- manage sidebar and footer content in django admin
- create custom page content types like markdown blocks
- build a page-based website with django

## When to choose
- you use Django and want a minimal, highly extensible CMS
- you need custom content types without fighting a monolithic CMS
- you maintain an existing FeinCMS project

## When to avoid
- you are starting a new project (use feincms3 instead)
- you want a batteries-included CMS with rich text, media library, and templates out of the box
- you do not use Django

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: web-framework, ui-components, plugin-system
- domain: web-development, cms, backend
- platform: python
- tags: django, cms, content-management, extensible, page-builder, web-server
