Backdrop is a fully-featured content management system that allows non-technical users to manage a wide-variety of content. It can be used to create blogs, forums, image galleries, social networks, intranets, and more.

Backdrop aims to provide:

• A full-featured CMS that puts editorial and end-users first.
• A system that can be utilized out-of-the-box.
• Code that can be learned and easily developed.
• Extensible APIs.

• PHP 5.3.2 or higher
• MySQL 5.0.15 or PostgreSQL 8.3 or higher with PDO enabled

1. Create a new database, username, and password for Backdrop to use in MySQL or PostgreSQL.

2. Point your browser at the URL of your Backdrop installation. On Apache web servers, you will be directed to the install screen. If you're not redirected, visit the install URL. If Backdrop was installed at http://example.com/backdrop, the install URL would be http://example.com/backdrop/core/install.php.

3. Follow the instructions provided in the installer.

Backdrop is a fork of Drupal. It preserves the legacy audience of developers who value ease of use and ease of learning over architectural flexibility. You can join Backdrop's developer community by forking Backdrop from https://github.com/backdrop/backdrop.
