As we're still working on the first Alpha release, and the code base is still being designed and worked on (it's a moving target for the time being), so there isn't much documentation to peruse right now.
Since we believe that documentation is one of the most important aspects of a piece of software (other than the community that surrounds that software), once we have something for you to play with we will be focusing on the documentation for AllianceCMS.
- Alpha Release: Remaining features for Alpha release.
For right now, here's some light reading to get you familiar with what AllianceCMS is all about:
-
History and Philosophy: Here's a little info regarding the history and motivation of AllianceCMS.
-

-
Features: Here's a brief list of features that have already been implemented in the current 'acms/alpha1/dev' branch.
-
Terminology: We explain some common terms that we use in the AllianceCMS sphere and their origins. This document also touches a little bit on our motivations and philosophy.
