Laravel: The Best PHP Framework
October CMS was built on Laravel, the best PHP framework. It includes all of the tools and classes necessary to build amazing websites, and we’ve made it even more powerful with a set of simple and flexible features.
Simple for Developers
What You Code is What You Get
October CMS doesn't impose restrictions on page structure, HTML, or CSS markup. It won’t generate or convert code, and you don’t need any new framework knowledge.
One Page, One File
October CMS creates individual files for each page and other templates. Themes are completely manageable with Content Version Systems like Git. You can edit pages in the built-in Editor or your favorite code editor.
Building Pages Quicker
Build pages quicker and easier using CMS page Components. Just add a Component to your page and configure it with Inspector, the visual tool for managing components.
Fast, Flexible Template Engine
October CMS uses Twig, a simple template language for web designers. It won't slow you down, and it automatically takes care of tedious tasks like escaping.
A Built-In Code Editor
Works With Your Workflow
October CMS is fully compatible with PHP Composer package manager, and that compatibility includes plugins and themes from the Marketplace, complex dependencies, and private repositories.
Built-In Asset Combiner
CSS and JavaScript assets can be combined and minified with just a single tag in your CMS templates. Combined assets reduce page load times and server traffic.
