There is **Zero** installation required. Just extract the ZIP archive, and you are already up and running. It follows similar principles to other flat-file CMS platforms, but has a different design philosophy than most. Grav comes with a powerful **Package Management System** to allow for simple installation and upgrading of plugins and themes, as well as simple updating of Grav itself. The underlying architecture of Grav is designed to use well-established and *best-in-class* technologies to ensure that Grav is simple to use and easy to extend. Some of these key technologies include: - [Twig Templating](https://twig.symfony.com/): for powerful control of the user interface - [Markdown](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markdown): for easy content creation - [YAML](https://yaml.org): for simple configuration - [Parsedown](https://parsedown.org/): for fast Markdown and Markdown Extra support - [Doctrine Cache](https://www.doctrine-project.org/projects/doctrine-orm/en/latest/reference/caching.html): layer for performance - [Pimple Dependency Injection Container](https://github.com/silexphp/Pimple): for extensibility and maintainability - [Symfony Event Dispatcher](https://symfony.com/doc/current/components/event_dispatcher/introduction.html): for plugin event handling - [Symfony Console](https://symfony.com/doc/current/components/console/introduction.html): for CLI interface - [Gregwar Image Library](https://github.com/Gregwar/Image): for dynamic image manipulation Requirements ============ [](#requirements) - PHP 7.3.6 or higher. Check the [required modules list](https://learn.getgrav.org/basics/requirements#php-requirements) - Check the [Apache](https://learn.getgrav.org/basics/requirements#apache-requirements) or [IIS](https://learn.getgrav.org/basics/requirements#iis-requirements) requirements Documentation ============= [](#documentation) The full documentation can be found from [learn.getgrav.org](https://learn.getgrav.org). QuickStart ========== [](#quickstart) These are the options to get Grav: ### Downloading a Grav Package [](#downloading-a-grav-package) You can download a **ready-built** package from the [Downloads page on https://getgrav.org](https://getgrav.org/downloads) ### With Composer [](#with-composer) You can create a new project with the latest **stable** Grav release with the following command: ``` composer create-project getgrav/grav ~/webroot/grav ``` ### From GitHub [](#from-github) 1. Clone the Grav repository from https://github.com/getgrav/grav to a folder in the webroot of your server, e.g. `~/webroot/grav`. Launch a **terminal** or **console** and navigate to the webroot folder: ``` cd ~/webroot git clone https://github.com/getgrav/grav.git ``` 2. Install the **plugin** and **theme dependencies** by using the [Grav CLI application](https://learn.getgrav.org/advanced/grav-cli) `bin/grav`: ``` cd ~/webroot/grav bin/grav install ``` Check out the [install procedures](https://learn.getgrav.org/basics/installation) for more information. Adding Functionality ==================== [](#adding-functionality) You can download [plugins](https://getgrav.org/downloads/plugins) or [themes](https://getgrav.org/downloads/themes) manually from the appropriate tab on the [Downloads page on https://getgrav.org](https://getgrav.org/downloads), but the preferred solution is to use the [Grav Package Manager](https://learn.getgrav.org/advanced/grav-gpm) or `GPM`: ``` bin/gpm index ``` This will display all the available plugins and then you can install one or more with: ``` bin/gpm install ``` Updating ======== [](#updating) To update Grav you should use the [Grav Package Manager](https://learn.getgrav.org/advanced/grav-gpm) or `GPM`: ``` bin/gpm selfupgrade ``` To update plugins and themes: ``` bin/gpm update ``` Upgrading from older version ---------------------------- [](#upgrading-from-older-version) - [Upgrading to Grav 1.7](https://learn.getgrav.org/16/advanced/grav-development/grav-17-upgrade-guide) - [Upgrading to Grav 1.6](https://learn.getgrav.org/16/advanced/grav-development/grav-16-upgrade-guide) - [Upgrading from Grav <1.6](https://learn.getgrav.org/16/advanced/grav-development/grav-15-upgrade-guide) Contributing ============ [](#contributing) We appreciate any contribution to Grav, whether it is related to bugs, grammar, or simply a suggestion or improvement!

Then `composer test` will run the Unit Tests, which should be always executed successfully on any site. Windows users should use the `composer test-windows` command. You can also run a single unit test file, e.g. `composer test tests/unit/Grav/Common/AssetsTest.php` To run phpstan tests, you should run: - `composer phpstan` for global tests - `composer phpstan-framework` for more strict tests - `composer phpstan-plugins` to test all installed plugins ### Health Score 72 — ExcellentBetter than 100% of packages Maintenance77 Regular maintenance activity Popularity65 Solid adoption and visibility Community45 Growing community involvement Maturity88 Battle-tested with a long release history Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 73.7% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
