Welcome

A calm, modern foundation
for your next site.

Phoca CMS is a lightweight PHP starter kit: one set of layouts and templates you copy into every new project, ready for SEO, multiple languages and a light/dark theme from day one.

Built for the way small sites are actually made

SEO from the first line

Titles, meta descriptions, Open Graph, Twitter Cards and JSON-LD are generated for every page automatically.

Multilingual by design

Add a language file and a folder of Markdown, and a whole new locale goes live - with automatic fallback for missing translations.

Light & dark, out of the box

A theme switcher that respects system preference, remembers your choice, and never flashes the wrong color.

Every small project tends to start the same way: an index.php, a style.css, a script.js - and six months later, no two projects look alike. Phoca CMS is the answer to that: a single, small skeleton you copy into every new build, so the plumbing is already solved and you can go straight to the part that's actually different this time.

It stays out of your way on purpose - no build step, no framework lock-in, just PHP, native CSS and native JavaScript, ready to be shaped into whatever you're building next.
