Introducing KeystoneJS, the CMS & API Platform for Prisma
summary
KeystoneJS v6 presents a schema-first Node backend that generates a GraphQL API and a React-powered Admin UI while using Prisma for persistence and migrations. The demo uses Prisma Migrate, stateless sessions, role-based access control, Next.js front end, a Slate-based structured document field with custom embeddable components (polls) and virtual fields (vote counts, GitHub repo resolver). The system runs in production, supports extensible auth and custom GraphQL mutations, and successfully wires CMS content into a live Next.js site.
