Just putting it out there, as this is beyond my capabilities… but what would it take to integrate this into a Kirby site so that editors did not have to use the panel?

The panel is easy enough to use for most people but i do have clients where it needs to be dummed down even further and using this option means i can keep them out of the panel and give them the ability to directly edit on the page it self.

this seems like a good approach to that: [getcontenttools.com](http://getcontenttools.com)

I have no idea how to connect it to Kirby and have it change the markdown files though. Would anyone be up for making a plugin to do it?

> Kirby is for me really the one and only CMS. Thanks to the blueprints scheme the panel is very wide customizable. Also: with great Plugins made by also great people like @DieserJonas and @distantnative it is really easy to use without fully compromizing the joy of use. With the concept of @timoetting’s [free page format plugin](http://forum.getkirby.com/t/plugin-for-an-extended-structure-field-with-more-then-one-kind-of-field-set/1696) Kirby is really just some steps away to enable fully customizable webpages. But that’s all you already know, I guess. But there’s still a gap between what you’ve created a…
