Introduction

What is Mirin?

Mirin is the platform behind the websites we build for you. We design, build, connect, and launch your site as a done for you service. After launch, your team can update pages, manage forms, review analytics, and publish changes without waiting on anyone.

On this page

Developers still get a full component workflow when custom work is needed. Owners and teams get a calm place to run the site day to day.

Pages, the way the workspace lists them. Every page shows whether it is live and when it last changed.

How it works

Four stages take your website from a redesign to a live site you run yourself.

  1. We build your sitePages, sections, forms and launch setup.
  2. You get the keysYour reusable sections, ready for your team.
  3. Update and previewCopy, images, settings and calls to action.
  4. Publish with confidencePre-rendered and served from the edge.

Mirin creates your pages, sections, forms, styling, and launch setup around your business. Your reusable sections then arrive in the platform so your team can edit content safely. Change copy, images, page settings, forms, and calls to action before anything goes live, and approved pages are pre-rendered and served from the edge for fast visitor experiences.

Why teams use it after launch

Mirin gives you a practical operating layer after the website is built.

Understand visitor interestGuess which calls to action matterUse analytics and click tracking to spot what gets attention
Need a custom section laterRebuild the page by handAsk us to add a reusable section to your library

The goal is not to make you a developer. The goal is to give you control over the parts of your website that change often, while the deeper design and component work stays handled by Mirin.

A platform for owners and builders

Most customers start with a done for you build. Component tools remain available for developers when the site needs custom sections, deeper integrations, or a reusable design system.

Key concepts

Four words come up throughout these guides. This is what each one means.

Reusable sections
The branded blocks your site is built from. Each section exposes safe fields that your team can edit.
Theme packs
The packaged library of sections, styles, and patterns that keeps your website consistent.
Pages
Visual compositions of sections. Pages can be edited, previewed, and published from the platform.
Sites
Your published website with custom domain, SSL, forms, analytics, and fast edge delivery.

Why Mirin

What the platform is built to give a team that owns its website. Next, see what you can do after launch: the guide that follows walks through the day to day.

  • Built for handoff. Your team can keep the site current after Mirin builds it.
  • Safe visual editing. Change content and compose pages while the design system stays intact.
  • Fast published pages. Pre-rendered pages are served from the edge for quick visitor loads.
  • Reusable brand library. New pages start from sections already shaped around your business.
  • Developer ready. When custom work is needed, developers can extend the same platform instead of starting over.
  • Custom domains. Connect your domain with automatic SSL certificates.
