Questions tagged [piranha-cms]

Piranha is the fun, fast and lightweight framework for developing cms-based web applications with an extra bite. It's built on MVC 5 and Web Pages 3.0 and is fully compatible with both Visual Studio and WebMatrix.

About

The main idea with Piranha is to create a lightweight cms template for building custom web applications. The project includes content management, user, group and permission handling. Everything in the core framework can be extended or overridden in the projects and the manager area is design so that custom views can easily be integrated to provide clients with a single user interface to adminstrate their data.

Another focus of the project is to adopt to the write-once-publish-everywhere principle. Apart from of course beeing able to display the content through a client web-interface the core library also includes rest APIs so other clients can connect and retrieve the content from the system.
