Acorn is a content management system (CMS) for creating easy-to-use and highly-capable websites. You can read a bit more about it here.

It's currently in a pre-alpha state and should not be used for stability & security reasons. It's built on top of the file-based Kirby CMS which requires its own license if used in production. Kirby's documentation is an excellent resource that should make Acorn's structure easier to understand.

• Group-writable (775) acorn, cache, and content folders and subfolders. Files within those directories should be group-writable as well (664).

Copy all files to your server's web directory and ensure that the cache and content folders and subfolders are group-writable. Visit the site and the homepage should appear.

Contact Andy for two additional plugins that add a (gallery:) tag and smarter image processing.
