Refinery CMS

Refinery is the easiest way to build great websites.

Here is what sets Refinery apart from the others (our guiding principles):

• 100% free and open source.
• Super simple and easy to use for your users.
• Slick, clean user interface.
• Modular and extendable with custom engines.
• It's just Rails, no need to learn anything special.
• Developers don't use UI, and Users don't want to learn code, so keep the two separate.
