Stacey – Lightweight Content Management System

Mufti Ali — Tue, 22 Mar 2011 05:50:44 +0000

Stacey is a lightweight content management system. No database setup or installation files, simply drop the application on a server and it runs. Your content is managed by creating folders and editing text files. No login screens, no admin interface. Stacey stores all of its content using flat text files & folders rather than a traditional database. So installation is as simple as copying the application files onto your server. No install file, no database setup and it will run on any standard php server.

The content file follows a simple format, where each chunk of content specific to the page or project is written out in plain text or html. The templating system uses vanilla html with a simple variable system. No php knowledge is required to build a site.
Some knowledge of html & css will be enough to build a completely custom website. Otherwise, the default templates should be enough to get started with. Stacey supports RSS/Atom straight out of the box.

Requirements: PHP 5+, Apache with mod_rewrite (optional), htaccess file support (optional)
