Mecha is a flat-file content management system for minimalists.
The default layout uses only Serif and Mono fonts. Different operating systems may produce slightly different results. This preview was taken from a computer running Arch Linux operating system. The Serif font shown in the preview should be DejaVu Serif:
To be able to activate the back-end feature requires you to install our Alert, Panel and User extensions. This feature is forever optional. You can use this feature on the local version only, and remove it on the public version to secure your website (only if you don’t trust this extension).
Colors and font types in the control panel preview above are generated from the default skin. Without them, the display will look like the preview below:
mod_rewrite
module.dom
,
json
and
mbstring
extension..\lot\x
and your layout files to .\lot\y
. They’re auto-loaded.This assumes that your site’s public directory is in /srv/http
. Make sure the folder is empty, or move the existing
files to another place first. Don’t forget with that .
at the end of the command as written in the example below, to
clone the repository into the current root folder.
cd /srv/http
composer create-project mecha-cms/mecha .
