Simplified Saaze
================

[](#simplified-saaze)

*Simplified Saaze* is a fast, all-inclusive, flat-file CMS for simple websites and blogs. It's not designed to be a replacement for great CMS's (e.g. WordPress, Statamic etc.), rather it's designed to be a smaller, simpler alternative.

Static site builders are fast but normally have a steep learning curve and require lots of tooling to make them work. We believe building a personal site should be stupidly simple. That's why *Simplified Saaze* is built on the following principles.

- Easy to run - All you need is PHP8, a C compiler, and Composer
- Easy to host - Serve dynamically or statically
- Easy to edit - Edit content using simple Markdown files
- Easy to theme - Templates use plain PHP/HTML
- Fast and secure - No database = less moving parts + more speed
- Simple to understand - Everything is a collection of entries

For more info and documentation for the original Saaze see . Read [*Simplified Saaze*](https://eklausmeier.goip.de/blog/2021/10-31-simplified-saaze) for installation and usage.
