DINGO CMS: The Simple CMS

There are hundreds of CMS out there and a few well know ones such as WordPress.

Tho I'm a developer I find them hard to grasp; they are over complicated, template based and you need time to learn how it all works. Don't get me wrong its great for bloggers and article writers but for maintain websites it can be a pain and a burden.

All I want from a CMS  is to update content as quickly and as easily as possible. These days everyone has a website and no one really likes the templates provided by the CMS companies and most people just use a template and pay someone to change it. Not so practical. 

What is required is a CMS which can manage and existing or new site without having to get a developer to put tags onto all of the pages. Also it has to be easy to use, roughly five minutes to figure out how it works.

So that got me thinking and I decided to create yet another CMS but this time with the goal to make is simple,easy to use and can handle and site.

I started working on this idea and a have final completed Dingo CMS. Still in Alpha and a few things left to add but the core functionality is ready. Add me on twitter to keep upto date with the release of version 1. 

What does it offer?

  • Easy to use with two pages; admin and client.
  • Very easy to install, just dump it into your root folder.
  • Set up Labels through the admin panel for each page element.
  • Clients edit content for each label you create.
  • It's Free!

Simple right!

here is some initial screenshots.
