SilverStripe is a free software / open source content management system (CMS) for creating and managing websites through a simple web interface. It has many advanced features. These features include an MVC framework, XHTML compliance, multiple ways of organising navigation through folksonomy, a flexible data object model, multiple templates per page, a separate "draft site" and "published site through staging content, asset management , image resizing, versioning and rollback, SEF URLs with meta-data. SilverStripe is designed for UTF-8 support including internationalisation of character sets. It also deploys content through RSS and full text search, including searching of PDF's and Word documents.
SilverStripe 2.x coding began in late 2005, as an overhaul to take advantage of object orientation and other features of PHP5, and to allow Firefox/Macintosh compatibility, which had been difficult as SilverStripe 1.x predated Firefox.
SilverStripe is released under the terms of the BSD Licence[1].
The project site and downloads can be found at SilverStripe, and an online demo of SilverStripe is available at the SilverStripe Demo site
