Cockpit legacy
Open-source PHP content management system from the earlier Cockpit line, usable as a headless CMS.
Cockpit legacy is the earlier Cockpit codebase, a content management system that can also serve as a headless CMS. Its folder goes into the root of a web project, and an install page in the browser finishes the setup. Content is stored in SQLite or MongoDB.
Worth knowing
The README opens by saying that development of Cockpit’s next iteration moved to a dedicated organization on GitHub, where Cockpit is developed.
