About Dbasr

Introduction

Dbasr is a free, open-source content management system. It’s designed to allow musicians and other rich media artists to build, customize, manage and update their own website and web presence using simple tools. It’s similar to great CMS tools like WordPress, but Dbasr isn’t a blog engine (though it has blogging tools built in).

Dbasr is currently in development.
