What is GitHub CMS and why it matters for GEO

GitHub CMS is a headless CMS based on a GitHub repository that turns Markdown files into an AI-optimized static site with full structured data. Unlike WordPress and SaaS platforms, content lives in git, is versioned, and every article automatically gets JSON-LD Schema.org markup (Article, FAQPage, HowTo, BreadcrumbList), Open Graph and Twitter Cards with zero manual setup.
