## What it is
Quokka is a Python/Flask-based content management framework for building websites, blogs, and portals with a web admin interface. It supports TinyDB or MongoDB storage, Pelican themes, plugin modules, and optional static site generation.

## Use cases
- build a blog or portal with a python cms
- generate a static website from an admin interface
- self-host a lightweight cms with tinydb or mongodb
- create a flask-based content management framework app
- run a cms quickly with docker
- use pelican themes with a cms

## When to choose
- you want a lightweight Python/Flask CMS with flat-file TinyDB storage
- you want to generate a static site from CMS-managed content
- you want to reuse Pelican themes
- you want an extensible CMS via plugin modules

## When to avoid
- you need a maintained, actively developed CMS (project seeks new maintainers, last release 2019)
- you need production-grade security updates and support
- you prefer a non-Python or heavily documented mainstream CMS

## Facets
- artifact type: framework
- maturity: abandoned
- function: web-framework, static-site-generator, templating
- domain: cms, web-development, self-hosted
- platform: python, self-hosted
- tags: flask, cms, content-management, tinydb, mongodb, flask-admin, pelican-themes, static-site, unmaintained, web-server, docker
