Pluck CMS is a simple, PHP file based cms. I have always had an interest in file based, simple website managers. Zip it up, expand it somewhere else. Easy.
The first version of pluck was released in 2005 under the name CMSsystem. It was a "one man project", and the code wasn't released under an open source license. Version 2 and 3 where released in 2005 and 2006 respectively, though the exact dates are unknown.[3]
4.2 was the first version with the name pluck, and also the first version released under the GNU General Public License.[3]
In 2014 the source code has been moved from launchpad to github. Bill Creswell joined to a development team.
I started playng with in in 2016, per wikipedia.
