Publish
Rhizopress
A lightweight, self-hosted content management system that turns structured content into fast static websites. Made for designers, cultural organisations and independent publishers who want control without a heavy platform.
Publish lightly.
Read freely.
Grow together.
Rhizooma is a set of open, practical tools for building and inhabiting a web that is slower, lighter and more independent.
Why we made this
The web can be
useful without
demanding all of
our attention.
Publishing tools have become heavier, feeds more manipulative and digital work harder to own. Rhizooma began as a practical response: make smaller tools that can be understood, maintained and shared.
Each part works independently. Together they create a cycle in which people can publish, distribute, discover and evaluate digital work on their own terms.
