Is there any plans to create a contact management system? Something where clients can edit their own webpages and revamp and enter new content?

You could already use this one: [Simple CMS Script in PHP | Jabbers](https://www.phpjabbers.com/simple-cms/)  
Integrating it into your Elements site is done by pasting in a php-snippet.

Down the road _(and after the 1.0 release)_ I’d love to see Elements add support for [headless CMS’s](https://www.storyblok.com/tp/headless-cms-explained#:~:text=While%20a%20traditional%20CMS%20is,an%20endless%20number%20of%20channels.) (either by Realmac or 3rd parties) in much the way [Astro does](https://docs.astro.build/en/guides/cms/), as doing so would allow not only much greater flexibility in how designers/developers/customers choose to manage their content, but also enable them to more easily reuse it in different contexts.

The website doesn’t seem to have any pricing or details about the licenses. 🤔

According to the website the software is free and open source.

License is free but there is pay customization as removing company name, etc.

Sure, ideally you should be able to use anything that can be used as a datasource so long as it has an API, and an integration (adapter/plug-in) for Elements.
