TYPO3
Open-source PHP content management system with a browser-based backend, Fluid templating and multi-site, multi-language site handling.
typo3.orgrepositorydocsplugins
TYPO3 is a PHP content management system in which editors work in a browser-based backend at /typo3/ and pages are rendered with the Fluid template engine. One instance can serve several frontend sites, and localized records and interface labels are part of the core. The core builds on Symfony components and Doctrine DBAL. Projects start from the base distribution through Composer. The code is reviewed on the project’s own Gerrit server, and GitHub holds a synchronized mirror. The TYPO3 Association maintains the project and owns TYPO3 GmbH.
Worth knowing
Each LTS release is fully supported for about 1.5 years, then receives security fixes. After that, fixes come only from the paid extended long-term support program (ELTS) from TYPO3 GmbH.
