What is Backdrop CMS?
Backdrop CMS is a free, open-source content management system written in PHP and licensed under the GPL. It is a fork of Drupal designed to be usable out of the box and learned quickly. It offers configuration management, an add-on browser and a permissions system, and suits blogs, galleries and intranets.
Licence: GPL-2.0-or-later · Built with: PHP + MySQL/MariaDB · Official site: backdropcms.org
Common uses
- Small organisation or non-profit website
- Blog or image gallery
- Intranet or membership site
- Site owners moving from Drupal 7
Backdrop CMS requirements
- PHP: PHP 7.1 or higher (a currently supported PHP version is strongly recommended)
- Database: MySQL or MariaDB 5.5.0+ with PDO
- Apache (preferred) with mod_rewrite, or Nginx
- PHP OpenSSL extension recommended
- 15 MB minimum disk space; 60 MB or more with many add-ons
Backdrop needs PHP 7.1 or higher and MySQL or MariaDB, and the project says it serves pages quickly even on shared hosting. Contributed modules may lag behind the newest PHP versions.
