SkyLight is a flexible website builder made with html5, css3, javascript and php. It has support for third-party themes and it is highly customizable
NOTE: SkyLight is written for PHP 7. It will not work in PHP 8. I found that out the hard way because I accidentally updated XAMPP

Download the latest version from the releases page on this GitHub repo, and extract the zip file on your server. It can be installed anywhere. Put it at the root of your server or in a subdirectory. If installed in a subdirectory you need to set the correct path in the Advanced section of the settings panel after installation.
NOTE: Download Source code (zip)
and not package.zip
, because package.zip
is for online updating only and doesn't work on its own!
If you want to run a developer preview built, git clone from master:
git clone https://github.com/RobinBoers/SkyLight-Website-Editor
The default password is root
. It can be used with any username, because I haven't added, and do not plan on adding, accounts. The username you enter will appear under the posts and comments you make, but has no other effect.
Check the installation guide for more info.
If you need help or have any suggestions, you can email me at robin@geheimesite.nl or create an issue on GitHub. I'd like to hear from you!
I also made a wiki, where you can find documentation about SkyLight. The wiki is linked below.
