Developer Documentation
Steer CMS is built using the Symfony framework and at its core are a collection of plugins.
At a brief glance, the Steer CMS system is split into two separate applications: fontend (public) and backend (administrative) - the later being accessed via: http://localhost/cms. While independent in many ways, the two applications are joined via a shared project.yml configuration file, and the shared usage of plugins which independently also carry the frontend/backend context.
If you aren't familiar with the Symfony framework, its project site has a wealth of information, tutorials and plugins documented. Some of the community driven plugins have been used in Steer CMS already - and any regular Symfony plugin can be adapted for usage with Steer CMS.
