This project contains the codebase for itPage.

itPage is a Lasso-based CMS that has a feature set most in-demand for general-purpose websites. It has a clear, intuitive back-end, making it suitable and easy for end-users to manage their site with minimal developer involvement.

In its full implementation, itPage supports a wide range of media formats for inclusion into websites. Using the concept of a media library makes it easily understandable to end-users.

The architecture supports site-wide or page-specific tailoring of meta information (keywords, description, author).

Lasso developers will appreciate easily-understandable, commented code. Custom tags make it a simple matter to output pre-built content into templates.

A nested-set architecture ensures that the site is not locked into a particular structure. Modern, attractive jQuery features are incorporated, and the codebase is flexible enough to add new features as they are desired.
