Pixie 1.04 has launched with a tonnes of improvements. Pixie now uses CKEditor for WYSIWYG editing and ships with the latest jQuery. A full description of whats new can be found on the Wiki.
Our main goal is to keep Pixie simple. Keeping Pixie simple doesn't stop it from having plenty of powerful, useful features. So lets start with our favourite three:
- The Installer - Most website management tools will install the same package for everyone. Pixie takes a new approach and allows you to select the type of site you are after. A blog?, A site for your band? Maybe one to run your Business? We think it's your site - so you choose what best suits you. As Pixie matures so will the list of possibilities...
- Web Standards - Pixie uses the latest web standards so whatever site you build, it's accessible to all your visitors and is search engine friendly. Pixie is especially fond of Microformats. It's not just your visitors who benefit though. We're working hard to make the site administration area easy and accessible too.
- Design - Pixie itself has been designed to be simple. Pixie’s interface has been refined over a number of versions to be user friendly. On the visitor side... you will love the fact that all you need to know is CSS to customise your site. If that sounds too complicated you can choose from the ever increasing amount of free themes.
