Build Blogs, Websites and Web Apps with an CMS made in top of CodeIgniter 3.x
This project was born from the need to create a fast and easy website without using solutions like Wordpress or Joomla, which due to the amount of code and third party plugins increases the complexity of any changes.
The objective of this project is to assist developers who want to have code control in a simple and practical way.
Wpanel was developed on the Codeigniter 3 framework, so it is important to have some basic knowledge of its operation. See the Codeigniter 3 documentation here.
