OpenCms 9.5.1 documentation (for local installation)

The documentation aims to help developers from getting started with OpenCms up to getting familiar with advanced development topics regarding OpenCms. Some topics are also interesting for content managers, but most of the documentation is focused on template development, content design, configuration options and user management.

The documentation is found online at http://documentation.opencms.org/opencms-documentation/. So you only need to download the documentation modules in case you want to try the interactive examples from the documentation.

To install the documentation you need OpenCms 9.5 or later.

  • Import the module com.alkacon.opencms.documentation (the site does not matter)
