Superdesk Overview

Superdesk is an open source headless CMS for news organisations and publishers. It enables news agencies of all sizes to create, produce, distribute, archive, and curate content with a suite of open-source journalism tools, including a headless content management system, editorial workflow management, Elasticsearch capabilities, review and revision functions, plus user access controls and permissions.

Superdesk and its tools have been built alongside/in development with journalists in real newsrooms like version control, comprehensive document management, a robust text editor, version control, and approval process control to mention a few. Superdesk gives users the flexibility to integrate with legacy systems and other third-party apps.

Superdesk facilitates newsroom management, allowing news editors to review news lists and running orders, as well as check what reporters are filing and which trending topics have been covered. It supports custom workspaces where journalists can work on story ideas privately, with their own personal dictionaries and library of abbreviations. Superdesk includes technologies such as RESTful APIs, MongoDB and Elasticsearch, which help users search, index and store content.
