Create the Site You Want
Our Developer Platform gives you full control over your Squarespace site HTML, CSS, and JavaScript while providing you with a JSON API to output content created using the CMS.
Features
This system has been built by some of the best engineers in the world, and it's the same platform we use to create consumer level templates. Whatever you make, you'll love making it here.
Local Development
Use the Squarespace Development Server to develop your site locally while working with your preferred native build tools.
Git Built-in
All Squarespace template repositories are exposed via Git automatically, so you can work with a team and easily roll back.
JSON Data Store
Query any page as JSON to access any of your sites data in a structured way. Your website content is an API.
JSON-Template
Our familiar template language has very few language constructs to learn, yet offers the power and expressiveness needed to implement any design.
Infrastructure
Whether you have 10 or 10,000 visitors a day, your site will remain online. We host our site on the same servers, so we're in this together.
Content Delivery Network
Our built-in CDN reduces load times using hundreds of geographically distributed servers to load your static images, scripts, and stylesheets.
Site Manager
Manage your clients content using the same robust backend that powers hundreds of thousands of sites on our consumer platform.
Of course, all the features of the Squarespace Consumer Platform are included in every site, including those on the Developer Platform.
You’re in Great Company
Some of the top brands, artists, and creative agencies in the world trust the Squarespace Developer Platform to run their websites.
