Evolution CMS is an open source Content Management System and Application Framework.
Initially inspired by Etomite 0.6, the project became MODX Evolution, the original MODX codebase developed by Raymond Irving, the MODX team, and its contributors.
In its later years under MODX, development and releases were already being led by the team that subsequently formed the Evolution CMS Project, including Dmytro Lukianenko. In 2016, MODX transferred stewardship of Evolution to that team, and in April 2017 formally recognized Evolution CMS as an independent project under its existing leadership.
Development has continued in evolution-cms/evolution as the direct continuation of MODX Evolution, maintained by Dmytro Lukianenko, Serhii Korneliuk,
and the Evolution CMS core team and contributors. The former modxcms/evolution repository was later archived on Mar 9, 2021 and is now read-only.
Other repositories derived from Evolution CMS are independent downstream forks or distributions and do not represent the project lineage established by the MODX Evolution team.
Evolution CMS is distributed under the GPL v3 or later license and is maintained by a professional international team of developers. See the Evolution CMS Team for more information.
Evolution CMS, formerly MODX Evolution, is a web content management system originating from the MODX project.
It is not affiliated with Yamaha Corporation, Yamaha MODX/MODX+ synthesizers, or any Yamaha sound libraries, expansion packs, or products using the name “Evolution”.
Evolution CMS provides a fast, lightweight and powerful framework on which to deploy and secure your website and web applications.
For example, it gives you a true system for registered web users and groups that is separate from administration users. You can grant some web users access to one page and others access to another page.
For content management, you can easily duplicate documents, folders (and all their children!), chunks and snippets.
Most significant, though, is Evolution CMS's ability to empower you to quickly and easily create and maintain a rich and dynamic website like never before.
You can use the single click installer: Evolution CMS Installer Evolution CMS 3.5.x requires PHP >= 8.3. Recommend PHP >= 8.4.
