Whether you’re already using the platform or considering it as an alternative to WordPress, this event will provide valuable insights and practical tips to make the most of OctoberCMS.
What is OctoberCMS?
OctoberCMS is a self-hosted content management system (CMS) built on the PHP programming language and the powerful Laravel web application framework. It supports a range of databases like MariaDB, MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite, and SQL Server. Known for its simplicity and flexibility, OctoberCMS serves as a solid alternative to WordPress, offering developers a minimal learning curve while delivering high performance and customizable features.
Some of its standout features include a component-based structure that allows developers to easily manage and reuse building elements across web pages. It also provides an Ajax framework for seamless back-end and front-end development and uses Twig, a powerful templating engine, to cleanly separate data from website templates.
OctoberCMS is widely appreciated for its ability to integrate with version control systems, enabling smooth collaboration for development teams. As of November 2023, it is the second-most starred PHP CMS on GitHub and one of the most popular open-source platforms worldwide, according to Built With.
