Highlights

The project now includes a web-based installer that allows you to set up the application quickly and easily through a browser without complex manual configuration.

Improved Project Structure

The CMS is structured to provide a clean and maintainable codebase, making development and future expansion easier.

Modular Package System

The system is built to support modular extensions through packages. This allows features to be added without modifying the core system.

Developer Friendly

SilkPanel CMS aims to provide developers with a solid base to build custom features, services, and integrations.

Documentation
