I finally did it, I forked WordPress

- DMPress is a headless, data-management CMS forked from WordPress 7.0, focusing on structured data instead of page rendering.
- It removes the block editor, front-end rendering, and other page-centric features while retaining the plugin ecosystem, hooks, REST API, and security infrastructure.
- A built-in Content-Type Builder allows defining post types, taxonomies, and custom fields without code, using Secure Custom Fields (fork of ACF).
- The front end is entirely headless: the active theme's index.html is served with no WordPress boot, and content is delivered via REST.
- Updates are distributed through its own Ed25519-signed channel from GitHub Releases, with no automatic rollback and updates only applied on admin action.
- DMPress prioritizes security and stability, with infrequent releases and a conservative scope to minimize regressions.
