Grav

Grav is a content management system (CMS); an application to make websites. Grav differs from other CMS platforms such as Drupal or WordPress in its underlying technology. While it’s a PHP app like those two, unlike them it does not have a database. All data is written directly to files on disk rather than stored and retrieved from a database. Grav is an open source platform with an active user community.

Why and when would you use Grav? Grav is a better choice for the technically-savvy user. It’s not particularly difficult, as every CMS has a learning curve, although it requires familiarity with Markdown, a lightweight Markup language for formatting page content. However, Grav benefits from features like Github integration using the Github Sync plugin, which syncs the Grav site to a Github repository.
