About DatoCMS
Headless CMS spends April hardening the developer surface and adding antivirus to the media pipeline.
DatoCMS is a headless CMS. April brought a security upgrade (automatic antivirus scanning across every Media Area upload, with CDN purge on detection), three coordinated CLI/DX improvements (unscoped npm package, OAuth-based project linking, plugin scaffolds in Astro and Next.js starters), and a Developer Plan API limit bump. Earlier in the window: in-CMS video editing alongside the existing image editor, permissions for Asset Collections, and pre-filtered linked record menus.
