OpenCms Open Source Web Content Management

OpenCms is a professional, easy-to-use open source website content management system.  OpenCms helps content managers to create and maintain websites quickly and efficiently.

The browser-based user interface features configurable editors for structured content with well-defined fields.  Alternatively, content can be created using an integrated WYSIWYG editor similar to well-known office applications.  A sophisticated template engine enforces a site-wide corporate layout and W3C standard compliance for all content.

OpenCms is based on Java and XML technology.  It can be deployed in an open source environment such as Linux, Apache, Tomcat or MySQL as well as on commercial platforms including Windows Server, IIS, Oracle and more.

OpenCms is true open source software and is free of licensing costs.
