What is the XOOPS project


  • An open source project
  • Driven by the xoops.org community
  • and by xoops local support communities

What's the project's vision?


  • To keep what made its success : out of the box concept, object oriented, with a Versatile/ flexible Group Permissions System, secure, Ease-of-use
  • To keep our CMS minimalist but make it more extensible : to offer the best modular platform for web php based applications
  • To became a Social Network in a box with real content management functionality for Web applications. Thus, the main considerations for XOOPS core are security, performance and extensibility built upon well-designed architecture and high quality of code.
  • To move forward progressively to a more professional platform
  • To propose and encourage the creation of a large choice of add-ons (modules, themes)

Our Community is our essence = the XOOPS community manifesto


  • The community recognizes the strengh of open source development, and incitates each member to share knowledge.
  • Each Xoops member is able to hear other's opinion. It's up to each to convince others by discussion
  • The community recognizes the role of past founders/active members/lead developers without denigration
  • Everyone is willing to develope innovation by maintaining friendly atmospheere, and we ask each member, for that purpose, to act with humility and the willing of helping other members
  • Its members recognize the benefit of participative attitudes, cooperation, team building, and true/fair relationships : synergy mode is our way of conduct,
  • The community finaly wants to promote opensource spirit/attitudes and to federate its members energies for the benefit of their client and their own (the "Powered by you" concept)
