Compare Bolt CMS vs. Fork CMS

Bolt CMS is a lightweight CMS built with the Silex Microframework. It is well built and a great alternative for developers looking for a modern PHP system to replace WordPress, for example.

Fork CMS is a new take on PHP CMSes. Built on a contemporary base that is a customised version of the Symfony2 framework, this is a challenger to keep note of.

• Clean architecture built with Silex, very easy to learn
• Standard components for Forms and Database
• Clean purpose, not trying to solve every problem

• A fresh start, no legacy baggage
• A clean user interface
• Fully featured for marketing sites

• Developer availability compared to WP
• Extensibility for multilingual, etc. depends on extensions
• Limited community size

• Not a 100% standard Symfony Framework app
• Limited adoption
• Public REST APIs not a priority
