BEdita | Semantic Content Management Framework

Overview

BEdita is not actually a CMS, even if it looks like, but it's a framework: a collection of tools and components to create advanced applications on the Web (but not only) dealing with complex content management.

The CMS world on the Web is surely crowded nowadays, it is very difficult to find the best solution to create a modern Web application, even more in a Web 2.0 world.

BEdita has been designed and created as an object oriented framework to let you build modern/new[next] generation Web applications able to handle complex contents. It is made of:

  • a powerful backend web application to create and handle contents and their semantic properties/relations
  • a frontend API, services and specifications to build your frontend application without limitations!

In BEdita backend and frontend are different applications: you can create more frontend applications on the same instance (also on the same publishing). This distinction comes from security reasons and for a better scalability, efficiency and freedom in frontends development.

BEdita has been built upon several different technologies nowadays, in our opinion, the most promising and effective:

  • PHP5
  • CakePHP
  • Mysql 5
  • JQuery.... and many others

 

BEdita is available in two versions:

  • a Free Software/Open Source version using Affero GPL 3 to let you write Open Source/Free software applications
  • a proprietary version containing specific advanced modules to create advanced/commercial/enterprise solutions
