ICYMI - our docs got a MAJOR upgrade last week. Alongside our V12 RC release, we've also totally rebuilt our documentation from the ground up. Cleaner structure, better search, and a customization option so you can get docs tailored to your specific stack. 👉 directus.com/docs

Most backends are built for developers. But the rest of the team is building, too. Directus v12 is out today. A major upgrade built around one idea: the whole team should be able to work on the same backend without getting in each other's way. Here's what shipped:

Directus
@directus.io

An improved content editing experience. Native draft and publishing workflows built into the core. AI-assisted translations. Scale across languages with schema scaffolding handled for you. Granular access control for AI. Agents act on behalf of real users with the right permissions applied.

Your non-technical team shouldn't need a developer to ship a build The new Directus deployment module lets your team trigger Vercel or Netlify deployments directly from the Data Studio. No webhook URLs, no Slack pings to engineering, no context switching.

500 people decided to build something together. Every commit. Every fix. Every feature. None of them were asked. They just showed up from every corner of the world and made Directus better. Thank you to every single contributor. You're the reason this exists. 💜

11.14 is live! And we included something SUPER cool to cap off 2025... Remember when we shipped MCP and you could finally talk to your Directus instance through Claude or ChatGPT? Cool, but also meant keeping two apps open. We fixed that! ✨ AI Chat ✨ is now a sidebar in the Data Studio.

EuraTechnologies hosts 300+ startups and processes thousands of job applications, but their website couldn't handle the scale. Startup founders were frustrated, job seekers were bouncing, and the team was drowning in manual processes. Our partners Web Vision 360 saw the problem differently.

The real win wasn't just technical though, it was human. Startup founders now spend time building, not fighting broken forms. Job seekers find opportunities that actually match. The EuraTechnologies team focuses on fostering innovation instead of wrestling with their CMS.

Instead of just "fixing" the website, they built a content powerhouse. Directus became the brain orchestrating everything: startup profiles, job feeds, lead capture, you name it.

The breakthrough? Separating content from presentation meant EuraTechnologies could finally move at startup speed. Now: > New companies can be onboarded instantly > Job postings can go live automatically > Virtual tours can showcase their spaces like never before

Because when your tools look like your brand, your team works better. And when your team works better, everything else follows.

Your admin interface should feel like home: ✅ Upload your logo, set your colors, choose your fonts ✅ Keep branding consistent across every project and team ✅ Make your CMS feel like a natural extension of your workspace

Directus
@directus.io

Most platforms force you into their design box. Generic interfaces. Corporate blue everywhere. Your team opens the admin panel and immediately knows they're in "someone else's" software.

Directus
@directus.io

That disconnect matters more than you think: ❌ Breaks the flow when jumping between your brand and theirs ❌ Makes internal tools feel like external obligations ❌ Harder to get team buy-in when it doesn't feel like "ours"

Directus
@directus.io

Our webhook setup is as simple as the no-code tools you're already using: ✅ Visual, point-and-click configuration ✅ Choose what triggers your webhooks with dropdowns ✅ Pick exactly what data to send (no bloated payloads) Because everyone deserves data that just works.

This is an extension, so teams can choose when and where they want collaborative editing enabled. Some collections need it, others don't. Your choice. No more coordination headaches. No more lost changes. Just teams working together the way they should.

Here's how it works: When someone starts editing a field, it locks for everyone else with a clear indicator of who's working on it. You can see exactly who's active on the page and what they're editing in real time.

Directus
@directus.io

The best part? It works across all your content relationships too. One person can update the hero section while another handles pricing tables and someone else swaps images - all on the same content item, all safely.
