Datenstrom Yellow

Flat-file website system in PHP that edits pages in a browser, stores content as files and generates static websites.

Datenstrom Yellow is a PHP website system that keeps content in files and lets the owner edit pages in a web browser after logging in. It is delivered as a ZIP file that is copied to a web server such as Apache, Caddy, LiteSpeed or Nginx, and the installer runs on screen. The help for getting started also covers running it on a computer with PHP’s built-in web server. From the command line it can generate a static website in a folder, which is then uploaded to a web server.

Worth knowing

There is no separate admin panel: editing happens in the browser after logging in. The homepage says there is no database.
