Less friction. More control.

Link German and English content and edit each independently. Five starter designs include Home, About, Services, Contact and Calendar pages.
Keep your options open
Built on Symfony, with administrator and editor roles plus email verification. A public read API lets you connect a separate frontend when needed.
Download. Explore. Make it yours.
The source is available under the MIT licence. Installation and operation require suitable PHP hosting and technical setup. I can help you with that.
Try it yourself
You need PHP 8.2+, the extensions listed in the README and Composer. After downloading, install dependencies, run setup and create your own administrator account.

Prefer help with design, content or hosting? I can support installation, customisation and planning the right solution for your practice.
Current stage: a portfolio prototype with fictional content. Booking and calendar are a single-practitioner demo. Do not use patient records or medical data; review and configuration are required before real-world use.
Is Care CMS right for your practice?
Is the download ready to use immediately?
It contains source code and sample content. Composer dependencies and an administrator account are created during setup. A hosted one-click installer is not included.
Can I connect a custom frontend?
Yes. A separate frontend can consume the public, read-only content API. Documentation and an example are included in the repository.
Does it include appointment booking and Google Calendar?
Basic booking and an internal calendar are included as a local demo. Google Calendar sync, billing and patient management are not included in this version.
Who is Care CMS designed for?
Developers, agencies and practice owners building a focused bilingual website with its own content management. I can handle setup and customisation.
Can I change text and images without coding?
Yes. Once installed, pages and articles can be edited visually. Media, navigation menus and announcements are managed from the dashboard.
Does it support German and English content?
Yes. Linked German and English versions can be created and edited independently. The administration interface also has a language switch.
Can I customise the design or choose a starter?
Yes. Five starter designs, editable pages and self-hosted WOFF2 font imports are included. The source code allows further customisation.
How are user accounts protected?
Administrator and editor roles, email verification, password recovery and session limits are provided. Secure operation also requires appropriate hosting configuration, updates and backups.
Can I use my own hosting?
Yes, if it supports PHP 8.2 or newer and the required extensions. Composer is needed to prepare the application, and the public web root must point to its public directory. See the README for details.
What does the source code cost?
Application code is available under the MIT licence. Hosting, email services and commissioned setup or development are separate. Dependencies and fonts retain their own licences.
Can I manage real patient data with it?
No. The published version is a portfolio prototype with fictional content, not a patient-management system. Privacy, security and specific requirements must be reviewed before real-world use.
Can you help with installation and maintenance?
Yes. Contact me about design, hosting, installation, training or ongoing support. We can agree the scope and cost for your project.
