You own your content and repository

Acrosite is Git-backed: it commits your content as Markdown to your own GitHub repository, so your content and its history live with you, not locked inside Acrosite.

OverviewFor Owners and anyone evaluating AcrositeUpdated June 8, 2026

Acrosite is Git-backed: it commits your content as Markdown to your own GitHub repository. That means your content — and its full history — lives with you, in a repository you control, not locked inside Acrosite. This page explains what that gives you.

Who this is for

Workspace Owners and anyone evaluating Acrosite who wants to know where their content lives.

Your content lives in your repository

When you publish, Acrosite commits the content item (and the images it uses) into your GitHub repository as Markdown with frontmatter, in a managed folder structure. Because it is in your repository:

  • You have the files, the history, and the commits.
  • Your site builds from your repository, the same as any other Git-based site.
  • You are not dependent on Acrosite to serve your published content.

See Acrosite-managed content paths for exactly where files land.

Acrosite is the authoring layer

Acrosite gives your team a clean place to write, review, schedule, and publish — and it keeps a workspace-scoped record of drafts, structure, review history, and logs to make that work. The published source of truth is your repository. See What Acrosite stores about your content.

Note
This describes Acrosite's product design — a Git-backed authoring layer over your own repository. It is not a legal statement; review your own agreements for the formal terms.

You stay in control

Because access runs through a scoped GitHub App, you choose which repositories Acrosite can write to, and you can manage or revoke that access from your GitHub installation settings at any time.

Frequently asked questions

In your own GitHub repository, committed as Markdown with frontmatter. Your site builds from there, so you keep the files and their history independently of Acrosite.
Your published content stays in your GitHub repository. Because it is plain Markdown in a repository you control, it remains usable by your site and any other Git-based tooling.
No. Acrosite commits content to your repository and triggers your host to rebuild. Your site is served by your own hosting provider, not by Acrosite.
