Microweber is an open-source content management system and website builder with drag-and-drop editing. Users move text, images, videos and modules directly on the page and see changes immediately through Live Edit. The project focuses mainly on e-commerce, with an administration area for pages, posts, products and categories. Microweber is built on PHP and Laravel (version 2.0 runs on Laravel 10), requires PHP 8.2 or newer, and works with MySQL, SQLite, SQL Server or PostgreSQL. You install it yourself by downloading the package or through Composer.
The project began in 2015 in Sofia, Bulgaria, and its source code is available under the MIT licence on GitHub. Because you install and operate Microweber yourself, you decide which hosting provider and which country holds the data; a European host or your own server in the EU is therefore possible. The MIT licence allows you to inspect and adapt the code or have another party maintain it, which reduces dependence on a single vendor.
