Apostrophe – An In-Context CMS & Free
Apostrophe is an open source CMS that enables you to manage websites while browsing them.
It has an ergonomic interface & has a minimal learning curve where anyone which is not familiar with CMS systems can easily use too.
The application can have multiple users with permission-based levels.
Images, videos & any other media can be managed quickly, new pages can be created or new “slots” can be inserted between other slots (like adding an image gallery under a paragraph).
Apostrophe can display the history (past revisions) of every content edited.
It is built with PHP (actually, it is a plugin for the Symfony framework) & requires MySQL for storing data.
