Umono

Umono is the vendor lock-in killer CMS.

v0.5.x Notes

Although v0.5 is a minor release, it introduces significant structural changes. With this release:

• The admin-ui repository has been deprecated. The Admin UI is now an internal part of Umono.
• The build repository has been deprecated. Umono can now exist as a single binary.
• Compono has replaced UmonoLang. Compono was designed specifically for Umono to produce more predictable outputs.
• A default frontend has been introduced. Until the theme system arrives in a future release, this aims to provide a more polished default look for Umono.

You can create a fresh Umono v0.5.x instance and migrate by copying umono.db and .env. If you need help please open an issue.
