2026: I shut down RichWP. Then I built the CMS I always wanted.

2026: I shut down RichWP. Then I built the CMS I always wanted.

I shut down RichWP — a WordPress theme business I had built since 2010 — for good.

Yes, I was a die-hard WordPress guy. But it got harder and harder to justify using it.

Pretty much on the same day I had this idea:

What if the CMS was just a conversation?

What if updating your site was as simple as texting someone?

So I built A3lix.

You are a developer.

You have built a gorgeous restaurant website — fast, modern, deployed on Cloudflare Pages.

The client loves it.

Then they ask: "How do I update the menu du jour?"

Now what?

With A3lix, the restaurant owner texts her change to a Telegram bot.

The site updates.

You are not involved.

Everyone is happy.

One message. Done.

No heavy UI. No Gutenberg. No drama.

I launched it just a few days ago with zero marketing.

It already has real traction.
