Fae is a content management system that provides developers with the foundations for building customised administration interfaces. It includes authentication, authorisation, form helpers and content management workflows.
Unlike systems that keep much of their functionality hidden within the underlying framework, Fae generates models, controllers and views that can be customised directly. This allows developers to adapt individual sections or entire administration interfaces using familiar Rails development techniques.
The software is suited to projects requiring structured content management rather than a fixed blogging platform. Its combination of administrative tools and customisation options helps developers create editing environments tailored to the needs of website owners and content editors.
This is free and open source software.
