Hello!
I am working on a new Flextype CMS!

Flextype, a Open Source flat file content management system, is now available for download.

Flextype claims to be easy to install, upgrade and use and offers API’s for plugin, theme and core developers.

Here are some of the features of this new CMS:
– No installation needed, just copy files to your server!
– No database required, flat files only!
– Use your favorite editor to write your content with Markdown syntax.
– Lets you define custom fields for any of your pages.

Check it out here: http://flextype.org

Very poor and worst service, I am expecting the delivery as per amazon given date but not received yet. almost they have taken 2 more days but there is no response from seller executives. I have also discussed with amazon team but still they are taking too much time and giving poor response.

Hi
You should also take a look at Parvula: https://github.com/BafS/parvula (disclosure; I may have a hand in it).

Hope you like it !

With 2016 upon is, maybe this is the year for flat file?

Be great to get your thoughts and comparison notes of some of the above with Pulse CMS:

In reply to Will.

Thanks to both responses. I never really thought about using google docs or dropbox to store files. It seems like it might be a pain to do that, but at the same time, if I decide to use Ghost, I can just that until they get file management onboard. I like the look and (kida) the feel of kirby, but the idea of charging for their software and then charging for their themes is a bit of a turn off. Don’t get me wrong, they are doing good work, but I like the open source realm more.

As for BootPress, it looks very promising too. I am about to start it up and see if it’s worth the switch (at this point, anything is better than wordpress).

Thanks again. I let you know the results.

In reply to Roman Ožana. Thanks for sharing about Sphido, Roman. It looks interesting, I'm probably going to play around with it when I get the chance.
