    We at Hygraph have helped thousands of teams power the next generation of content management through our industry's leading GraphQL API and unique Content Federation capabilities.

    Constantly driven by your feedback, we are thrilled to unveil the next big project we are working on. A new revamped content management interface to enhance your productivity.

    It is designed for optimum performance, with a more intuitive user interface and numerous new UX features.

    The new interface aims to not only provide a fresher look and faster app, but also allows us to have a shorter customer feedback loop, thereby delivering improvements faster in the future.

    Here's why we are bringing about this change and a sneak peek of all that the new interface will have to offer.

    #Why are we revamping our interface?

    Improved performance

    We are redesigning the interface so that it performs faster, resulting in a smoother and hassle-free user experience.

    Improved editor experience and UI facelift

    We are planning significant interface improvements to enhance user-friendliness, streamline tasks, and enable users to work faster and more efficiently.

    Quicker enhancements in the future

    The new interface offers better maintainability, allowing to launch new features and improvements much quicker.

    This in turn, enables us to incorporate your feedback into meaningful improvements much faster.

    #New Features

    Field Outline

    Our new Field Outlines will enable you to quickly navigate across fields inside a content entry. This will be particularly helpful for models with a large number of fields and nested components.

    Improvements to Roles and Permissions

    We will be introducing improvements to help admins set up multiple roles and define their granular permissions more quickly. This will include the ability to duplicate roles, simplified batch permissions management for multiple models, and more.
