Digitalus CMS
Digitalus CMS is a new kind of CMS. The focus of this open source project is usable software as opposed to endless lists of features. We added a very flexible API to this base so you can customize virtually any aspect of the system. This creates a simple and elegant platform that you can use for a wide range of sites and requirements.
Whats new?
PHP Architect just published the October edition. Featured is an article by Digitalus founder, Forrest Lyman, which chronicles the project development. "While designing it, Forrest Lyman focused on building an extensible, object oriented PHP framework for CMS developers rather than trying to provide the best solution for a particular segment of the Web publishing market. This is the story behind the Digitalus project. "...You can get your copy at: PHP Architect.
CMS Wire reviewed Digitalus CMS: "The administration interface is jaw-droppingly simple and this is encouraging when considering the varying amounts of knowledge that a client might or might not have at managing a Website."...CMS Wire - August 2008
What Digitalus cms can do for you
DesignersDigitalus CMS uses a very flexible and easy to develop template model. It takes about 5 minutes to convert a well designed XHTML page to a template.
DevelopersDigitalus CMS is built on the Digitalus Site Framework which combines the Zend PHP framework and the jQuery JavaScript library. The combination of these three tools with a simple and intuitive interface makes developing custom content driven websites easier than ever.
Site ManagersDigitalus CMS makes managing your site easy and fun. It offers a rich but not overwhelming feature set that helps make your job easier without taking the control out of your hands.
Web MarketersThe focus on elegant simplicity makes selling, managing, and supporting Digitalus cms based projects easy and profitable.
A thanks to the community
We would like to take a moment to thank the open source developers and projects that form the foundation of Digitalus cms. Without the Zend Framework, jQuery JavaScript library, the FckEditor, and everyone else we never would have been able to create this system. Thanks so much from all of us...The Digitalus Team
The future of this project
There has never been a more excting time to be a PHP developer. WIth the Zend Framework coming of age we now have a set of well architected and tested tools that would make a .NET programmer green with envy.
We look forward to developing the Digitalus cms based on your input, not what other similar systems offer. Keep the feedback coming and we will keep producing the most usable software we can!
