TYPO3 is a free and open source content management system as well as a Model–view–controller (MVC) Web
Application Development framework written in PHP. It is released under the GNU General Public License. It can
run on Apache or IIS on top of Linux, Microsoft Windows, OS/2 or Mac OS X.
History
TYPO3 was initially authored by Kasper Skårhøj. It is now developed by two teams. The maintenance tree, version
4.x, team leader is Oliver Hader. The development tree, version 5.x, team leader is Robert Lemke.
Many of TYPO3's pluggable extensions have been written by third party developers.
Features
Along with a set of ready-made interfaces, functions and modules TYPO3 has a large repository of extensions. More
than 4500 extensions are available for download under the GNU General Public License from a repository called the
TYPO3 Extension Repository [2] , or TER.
TYPO3 has a web frontend, which presents a TYPO3 based website to its users, along with a web based backend,
used by authors and site administrators to manage content for the website. TYPO3 can run on Apache or IIS on top
of Linux, Microsoft Windows or Mac OS X. It uses PHP 5.2 or newer and any relational database supported by the
TYPO3 DBAL including MySQL, Oracle, PostgreSQL, and others. The system can be run on any web server, with a
modern CPU and 256 MB RAM. The Backend (TYPO3 administration interface) can be displayed in any modern
browser (such as Mozilla Firefox) on any OS, with JavaScript. There is no browser restriction for displaying
user–oriented content generated by TYPO3.
