Principles
- No database — Everything in files (content in
content/, users inadmin/config/admin.json, config inconfig.json) - File-based auth —
AdminAuthuses bcrypt hashes inadmin.json, sessions for login - Twig templating — Themes use Twig;
ThemeManagerrenders via Twig - SCSS compilation —
assets/scss/theme.scss→assets/css_compiled/theme.cssvia scssphp (read-only output) - Plugin system —
PluginManagerloads content and system plugins with hooks/filters - Asset serving — PHP dev router (
cms/router.php) or Apache (.htaccess→public/asset.php)
