# Awesome Silverstripe CMS [![Awesome](https://awesome.re/badge.svg)](https://awesome.re)



[](https://www.silverstripe.org/)



> Useful resources for Silverstripe Framework and CMS



[Silverstripe CMS](https://www.silverstripe.org) is an open source PHP framework for building web applications. It is a rapid development MVC framework that serves as a classic fully fledged CMS or as a headless CMS, which can be queried either via GraphQL or a custom API.

Following the "Active Record" design pattern, you can easily extend the built-in functionality with a project specific data model.
