What is BardCanvas?

BardCanvas is a Multi-purpose engine and Content Management System based on the LAMP stack (Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP) authored by LAVA SoftWorks and released to the world as Open Source.

It works like most CMSs out on the wild, and though it is heavily influenced by WordPress, it has several differences in its design.

• It is built from the ground up with optimization in mind. • It is faster and consumes a lot less RAM. • It uses a templating system that is easy to understand and implement. • It has a library where you can find both free and premium modules and templates. • All modules are made with extensibility in mind, so developers can extend or reuse modules authored by other developers. • It has an integrated interface, so administrative pages look similar to regular pages, reducing the confusion caused by separate templates. • It has an universal settings editor, so all settings of the engine and all modules are found in a single place. • It has several cache levels that are used according their relevance. • It doesn't collapse the server in high traffic circumstances. • It can be clustered without changes, just by setting a couple of variables in the configuration file. • All code is easy to understand. Developers will love using some modules as template for their own creations.
