What is Contao?

Contao is an open-source content management system with a German-speaking user base and a track record in public sector, educational institution, and mid-market website deployments. It provides a structured content model, a template-based theming system, a media manager, and a multilingual framework. Development agencies in the DACH region frequently use it for client sites requiring multilingual content and GDPR-compliant hosting.

How it works

Contao is planned for the Laioutr App Store. The integration is designed to expose Contao content entries via a structured API to the Composable Visual Page Builder, enabling teams maintaining Contao backends to move frontend rendering to Laioutr without a full CMS migration. Content Management operations remain in Contao's familiar editor environment.

Contao with Laioutr

Once available, Contao-managed content flows into the Composable Digital Experience Platform as structured entries. Teams serving DACH audiences can retain Contao's multilingual content management capabilities while adopting Laioutr for modern frontend delivery, edge performance, and component-based layout composition.
