enterprise level power. blog level simplicity
I'm Abe, a full-stack developer, designer, and digital architect. I build composable, user-maintainable web apps with Payload CMS that give your team complete content ownership. Edit everything, break nothing.
why payload?
Paragraph possibly a payload definition here.
Beyond Templates. Beyond Limits.
Discover how Payload bridges the gap between no-code builders and full-scale web applications, offering creative freedom without the tradeoffs.
| Payload CMS | WordPress | Squarespace/Wix | Shopify | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FlexibilityCan it power a full app, not just a blog? | Full application framework, build anything from course platforms to inventory systems to social networks | Great for blogs and basic sites, but becomes messy for complex apps | Websites only, can't build custom apps or user dashboards | E-commerce is focused difficult to building non-shopping experiences |
| CustomizationCan you build unique features? | Unlimited, custom user roles, workflows, dashboards, integrations, business logic. | Plugins help, but you're limited by what exists or gets complex fast | Templates and basic customisation only, no custom functionality | Apps extend it, but you're stuck within Shopify's e-commerce framework |
| Ownership & ControlIs the code fully yours? | Complete ownership, host anywhere, modify anything, no vendor lock-in | You own it, but hosting and maintenance can get complex | Hosted service. You're renting, not owning | Hosted service. Your business depends on their platform |
| Long-term ScalabilityBuilt to grow with your business? | Scales from startup to enterprise, no platform limitations, just outgrow | Can scale, but performance issues with complex sites | Limited by plan tiers may need to rebuild as you grow | Scales for e-commerce, but locked into their ecosystem |
| Developer ExperienceModern, maintainable, team-friendly? | Modern tech stack, built for developers, easy to maintain and expand over time | Legacy PHP codebase can become a maintenance nightmare | No code access developers can't help beyond basic styling | Decent developer tools, but limited to e-commerce use cases |
The bottom line: Payload isn't just a content management system — it's a complete application framework that grows with your business, giving you the power to build exactly what you need without platform limitations.
