Baun is a modern, lightweight, extensible CMS for PHP. Inspired by my last CMS Pico, Baun has been desgined from the ground up as a modern PHP application whilst retaining the same features that made Pico so popular:
- Simple - Baun makes creating and maintaining a website as simple as editing text files
- Fast - Designed with performance in mind, and no database, making Baun blazing fast
- Flat - Baun is designed as a "flat file" CMS, meaning you can completely forget about MySQL
- Markdown - Edit your website in your favourite text editor using simple Markdown formatting
- Twig - Baun uses the Twig templating engine, for powerful and flexible templates
- Open Source - Baun is completely free and open source, released under the MIT license
Documentation for Baun can be found on the Baun website.
The Framework for Baun is kept in a separate repo. Check out the Framework if you want to contribute to the core.
The bauncms.com site is built using Baun.
