No complex setup, no heavy frameworks, just a simple, fast website. Requirements ------------ [](#requirements) - PHP 8.2+ - PDO SQLite extension - Apache or Nginx Installation ------------ [](#installation) ### Composer [](#composer) ``` composer create-project enlivenapp/fizl3 your-site ``` ### Zip [](#zip) Download the latest release, extract it to your web root, and run: ``` composer install ``` ### First Run [](#first-run) On first run, Fizl3 automatically: - Creates a SQLite database (zero configuration) - Seeds a default admin user (`admin` / `admin`) - Creates a published home page **Change the default password immediately** via Settings in the admin panel. Directory Structure ------------------- [](#directory-structure) ``` fizl/ ├── app/ # Application code │ ├── bootstrap.php # Routes, services, Vision tags │ ├── Core/ # Database, Auth │ ├── Controllers/ # Auth, Admin, Page controllers │ ├── Models/ # Page, Setting models │ └── Middleware/ # Auth middleware ├── config/ │ └── config.php # Database path, theme path, etc. ├── database/ # SQLite database (auto-created) ├── plugins/ # Drop-in plugins ├── public/ # Web root │ ├── index.php # Entry point │ ├── .htaccess # Apache rewrite rules │ └── assets/ # Public CSS, JS, images ├── theme/ # Theme templates │ ├── layouts/ # Layout templates (.tpl) │ ├── partials/ # Reusable partials (.tpl) │ └── 404.tpl # Custom 404 page ├── views/ │ └── admin/ # Admin panel templates ├── composer.json ├── nginx.conf.example # Nginx configuration example └── LICENSE ``` Admin Panel ----------- [](#admin-panel) Access the admin panel at `/admin`. Default credentials: - **Username:** admin - **Password:** admin ### Features [](#features) - **Pages** - Create, edit, and delete pages with a WYSIWYG editor (Jodit) - **SEO** - Meta title and description per page - **Settings** - Site title, description, password management - **Draft/Published** - Control page visibility ### Page Slugs [](#page-slugs) Each page has a unique slug that becomes its URL. Slugs support nested paths: - `about` serves at `/about` - `about/team` serves at `/about/team` - `home` is the default home page (serves at `/`) Slug uniqueness is enforced on save. Theming ------- [](#theming) Themes use [Vision](https://github.com/enlivenapp/Vision) templates (`.tpl` files). The theme directory contains layouts, partials, and a 404 template. Public assets (CSS, JS, images) live in `public/assets/`. ### Vision Tags [](#vision-tags) Fizl3 registers these custom Vision tags for use in templates: TagExampleOutput`css``{% css 'style.css' %}``` tag`js``{% js 'app.js' %}``` tag`img``{% img 'logo.png' 'Alt text' %}``` tag`site_url``{% site_url 'about' %}``/about``current_year``{% current_year %}``2026``csrf``{% csrf %}`Hidden CSRF input field### Template Inheritance [](#template-inheritance) Layouts define blocks that page content fills: ``` {# layouts/default.tpl #} > {{ page_title }} - {{ site_title }} {% include 'partials/header' %} {% block content %} {! content !} {% endblock %} {% include 'partials/footer' %} ``` Plugins ------- [](#plugins) Fizl3 ships with two bundled plugins: **Nav** (manual navigation from a config file) and **NavAuto** (auto-generated navigation from published pages). You can also create your own. See [PLUGINS.md](PLUGINS.md) for full documentation, usage examples, and a guide to creating custom plugins. Web Server Configuration ------------------------ [](#web-server-configuration) ### Apache [](#apache) The included `public/.htaccess` handles URL rewriting. Ensure `mod_rewrite` is enabled and `AllowOverride All` is set for the public directory. ### Nginx [](#nginx) See `nginx.conf.example` for a ready-to-use configuration. ### HTTPS [](#https) HTTPS redirect rules are included (commented out) in `public/.htaccess`. For Nginx, the example config includes an HTTP-to-HTTPS redirect block. Uncomment or enable as needed for production. Security -------- [](#security) - Passwords hashed with bcrypt - CSRF protection on all forms - Rate limiting on login (10 attempts, 30-minute lockout) - Session regeneration every 25 minutes - 12-hour session timeout from last activity - Secure, httponly, SameSite=Lax session cookies - Auto-escaped template output (Vision) - No arbitrary PHP execution in templates Credits ------- [](#credits) Based on the original [Fizl](https://github.com/sophistry/Fizl) by [Adam Fairholm](https://github.com/adamfairholm).
