Simple Content Management System

This CMS is made to be simple and flexible. There is no need for database installation, it works out of the box within the directoy tree it is in.

By default, the structure of the CMS is the same as the structure of the sub directories. For example, if you need to create a new page call "helloworld", simply create a directory "helloworld" with a "content.txt" file. That's it!
