Versatility that is no longer to be proved
Promotional platform, e-commerce, intranet, school portal, you name it!
Symphony is an open source content manager that allows users to create and manage websites and applications of all kinds, from the smallest blog to the most complex web platforms.
Symphony CMS is trusted by large and small organizations from all over the world. Many of them you may know from Quebec.
W3C recognized and proven technologies
Symphony uses the XML marking format and its modeling language, the XSLT. This tandem forms the only standards of marking and modeling recognized by the W3C, the public body of governance of the Web. This recognition ensures the durability of these formats by protecting them from the ravages of fashion effects (because yes, even in computing there are modes ...).
Combine these with a code base in PHP, documented, and you have an absolutely open tool, based on recognized and proven technologies and can be quickly recovered by any developer.
Rugged modular foundations, inspired by the greatest successes
In programming there is a principle of the single responsibility, stating that each piece of code has to focus on only one problem. It gives the tools it permeates a modular character that generates a great versatility. In addition to Symphony, this principle has enlightened over the last four decades the development of a multitude of computer tools, some even the most fundamental to our contemporary virtual experience. Unix, for example, is based explicitly on this principle ... and Unix is at the heart of MacOS X. Oh. And also of the entire infrastructure of servers erecting Internet. No kidding.
The ultimate degree of versatility.
No other PHP-based manager can claim the degree of flexibility, malleability and customization achieved by Symphony. The key to this unmatched versatility lies not only in Symphony's modular foundations, but also, and especially, in its particular approach to interactive management.
