Overview

Mezzanine is a powerful, consistent, and flexible content management platform. Built using the Django framework, Mezzanine provides a simple yet highly extensible architecture that encourages diving in and hacking on the code. Mezzanine is BSD licensed and supported by a diverse and active community.

In some ways, Mezzanine resembles tools such as Wordpress, providing an intuitive interface for managing pages, blog posts, form data, store products, and other types of content. But Mezzanine is also different. Unlike many other platforms that make extensive use of modules or reusable applications, Mezzanine provides most of its functionality by default. This approach yields a more integrated and efficient platform.

Visit the Mezzanine project page to see some of the great sites people have built using Mezzanine.

Features

In addition to the usual features provided by Django such as MVC architecture, ORM, templating, caching and an automatic admin interface, Mezzanine provides the following:

Support

To report a security issue, please send an email privately to core-team@mezzaninecms.com. This gives us a chance to fix the issue and create an official release prior to the issue being made public.

For all other Mezzanine support, the primary channel is the mezzanine-users mailing list. Questions, comments, issues, feature requests, and all other related discussions should take place here.

If you're certain you've come across a bug, then please use the GitHub issue tracker, however it's crucial that enough information is provided to reproduce the bug, ideally with a small code sample repo we can simply fork, run, and see the issue with. Other useful information includes things such as the Python stack trace generated by error pages, as well as other aspects of the development environment used, such as operating system, database, and Python version. If you're not sure you've found a reproducible bug, then please try the mailing list first.

Finally, feel free to drop by the #mezzanine IRC channel on Freenode, for a chat! Lastly, communications in all Mezzanine spaces are expected to conform to the Django Code of Conduct.

Contributing

Mezzanine is an open source project managed using both the Git and Mercurial version control systems. These repositories are hosted on both GitHub and Bitbucket respectively, so contributing is as easy as forking the project on either of these sites and committing back your enhancements.

Please note the following guidelines for contributing:

  • Before doing anything, discuss it on the mezzanine-users mailing list first.
  • Contributed code must be written in the existing style. For Python (and to a decent extent, JavaScript as well), this is as simple as following the Django coding style and (most importantly) PEP 8. Front-end CSS should adhere to the Bootstrap CSS guidelines.
  • Contributions must be available on a separately named branch based on the latest version of the main branch.
  • Run the tests before committing your changes. If your changes cause the tests to break, they won't be accepted.
  • If you are adding new functionality, you must include basic tests and documentation.
