Welcome to Contao
Welcome to the Contao example website that is shipped with every Contao template. Contao is a PHP5 powered open source content management system (CMS) that has been developed by Leo Feyer since 2006. It generates W3C/WAI compliant XHTML code and uses CSS to style it. Contao has been released under the GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL).
About the template
The template contains not only style sheets with format definitions for all content elements and modules, but also a fully preconfigured example website with different users and user groups. See the info-box on the right for more information about users and roles.
All persons, news and events in this template are fictional.

TYPOlight becomes Contao
Since the name TYPOlight has repeatedly led to misunderstandings and false assumptions regarding the system's potential and range of functions, the TYPOlight project has changed its name to Contao Open Source CMS. Everything else remains the same.
