[re]solution introduction
[re]solution is a attempt for a mini cms. I tried to develop a cms which I could use in all my web/php jobs. Turned out that I learned a lot but the cms was just not quite good enough. After switching over to Drupal with my start at artecho GbR, Martin and I noticed soon that we need a smaller solution besides Drupal since it is not worth installing for a homepage where maybe one or two pages will have a dynamic text.
So I decided to clean up all the mess I programmed in my time as freelancer and made a simple and clean mini cms. The most important thing about [re]solution is that it has no front end, only a documented api for getting access to all dynamic content.
Although we will be using this system on some minor jobs I decided to make it open source. Don´t expect to get direct support or feedback from me but you have the possibility to submit Bug Reports and Feature Requests.
