A new cms that will be as robust as WordPress, with a fraction of the code

Architecture

• PHP shells/stubs
• JavaScript (Typescript?) page layout generation
• Static HTML pages with dynamic inputs (similar to Gatsby, Netlify, etc.)
• Two-server architecture: one to render the layout and one to generate optimized, static HTML for the front-end. Can this be done on a single server?

Tasks

• Create database (Mongo or Maria?) -- MariaDB to start

• Create a secure database connection

• Create Homepage

• Create Admin dashboard page

• Create permissions for these roles:

  • User/Subscriber
  • Contributor/Author
  • Editor
  • Admin (CMS only)

• Create User dashboard

• Create Contributor dashboard

• Create Editor dashboard

• Create Basic Content Editing Page

• CRUD Content

  • Set allowed file types
  • Include fields for author info (eventualy autofill this info)
    • Author First Name
    • Author Last Name
    • Author Title
    • Author Publish Date
    • Author Update
