Hi Steve,
I don’t recall you asking, sorry for dropping the ball on this. Sparkle doesn’t include a CMS and doesn’t integrate with any either.
There are several reasons for this. One is that we haven’t found a CMS that will produce code on par with Sparkle’s, particularly for responsive images. Another is the CMSs I have seen have a really terrible, decontextualized interface for the end users. Yet another is Sparkle’s code output is a very tight knit combination of layout and content, so a seemingly simple edit could end up breaking the layout in a way that is not understandable for the end user, not to mention no integration with the built-in style or color management.
Sparkle is itself a CMS (it lets you manage content afterall) that is simple enough for end users to use directly, and many do, not unlike people not using a consultant to build their Powerpoints and Keynotes.
So in essence we are pushing this feature back as we develop other aspects of Sparkle further. Hopefully in the not too distant future it will make sense to revisit this and find a proper solution.
Thanks,
Duncan
