We're really excited finally to be able to release the CMS our clients use to the public - now as a free open-source project.
CMS from Scratch is a powerful, lightweight content management system designed specifically for small- to medium-scale web developers.
It has been designed specifically to be the quickest way to make flat HTML pages client-editable. We can convert a whole web site in an hour, and so can you!
CMS from Scratch is now open-source, so you can use the source PHP code unencrypted for free on all your projects!

We've been developing this system for our own agency's clients to use for 3 years, so you can be sure it works.
Quite simply, we've designed CMS from Scratch to let developers make a web site client-editable, while retaining full flexibility control over the source code, and to give customers a really simple and appealing user interface.
CMS from Scratch's powerful ‘Includes’ approach is flexible enough to support all kinds of features already in your HTML, including:
... all protecting your client from being able to break the site structure.
The new commercial version of CMS from Scratch is decked out with a smart AJAX user interface that makes managing and editing web sites a breeze.

We want you to get all the credit for this, so CMS from Scratch is unbranded.
You can present the CMS as your own selected product. We even provide a generic User Guide, which you can brand and modify for your own clients.
They'll love you for it.

The sheer elegance and simplicity of CMSfromscratch combined with unparalleled levels of hands-on support we received from Ben made our first implementation a breeze!
