What is Twill?
Twill is an open-source content management system (CMS) and framework built on top of the Laravel PHP framework. It allows developers to quickly scaffold a custom CMS and admin panel for managing content, without having to build everything from scratch.
Some key features of Twill include:
- Simple interface for managing pages, posts, navigation menus, users, files, and more
- Customizable templates and views using Blade and Vue.js
- Modular CMS elements that can be enabled/disabled
- Role-based user permissions
- SEO-friendly URLs and sitemap
- Media library with image cropping
- Basic stats dashboard
- Built-in authentication and authorization
- API support for headless CMS implementations
- Active development community
By building on Laravel and other modern PHP libraries like Vue.js, Twill aims to accelerate custom CMS development while handling all the standard functionality developers would otherwise need to build from scratch. It allows focusing effort on the custom/unique aspects of a project.
