Summary


In this chapter, we have looked at what a CMS is, what TYPO3 is, and how it can help us. We also saw that typo3.org really has all of the resources we could ever need.

We have decided on a project site to create during the course of this book to help us apply our ever growing knowledge of TYPO3. Now it's time to install TYPO3 for ourselves and see what it has to offer in action!
