# Statamic Documentation

## Getting Started

- [Requirements](https://statamic.dev/getting-started/requirements.md): Statamic is a modern PHP application built as a [Laravel](https://laravel.com) package, which carries with it the same [server requirements](https://laravel.com/docs/13.x/deployment#server-requirements) as Laravel itself. To manipulate images (resize, crop, etc), you will also need the GD Library or ImageMagick installed on your server.
- [Licensing](https://statamic.dev/getting-started/licensing.md): Statamic is available in two distinct flavors, but one splendid codebase. Statamic Core is **free and open source** and can be used for any type of project, while **Statamic Pro** is powerful commercial software designed for team and more robust use.
- [Core Concepts](https://statamic.dev/getting-started/core-concepts.md): Statamic is opinionated software. Understanding the principles we follow and apply to the way we build features will help you learn Statamic faster.
- [Quick start guide](https://statamic.dev/getting-started/quick-start-guide.md): A step-by-step guide to installing and building your first Statamic site.
- [How to install Statamic](https://statamic.dev/getting-started/installing.md): Because Statamic is a **self-hosted platform**, there are many different ways to get started. We recommend using whichever approach you're most comfortable with.
- [Configuration](https://statamic.dev/getting-started/configuration.md): Statamic uses standard Laravel config files and environment variables for application-level settings.
- [Upgrade guide](https://statamic.dev/getting-started/upgrade-guide.md): How to upgrade between various versions of Statamic.
- [Updating](https://statamic.dev/getting-started/updating.md): Updates are handled by [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/), PHP's dependency manager. We recommend running all updates locally (not on production) via the command line and deploying those changes to production after verifying everything still works as it should.
- [Deploying](https://statamic.dev/getting-started/deploying.md): Statamic is a modern PHP application, built as a [Laravel](https://laravel.com) package, and can be deployed like any standard Laravel application or as a static site. Here are some common deployment solutions and workflow recommendations.

## Content Modeling
> Before you build pages, templates, or implement features, there’s one foundational question to answer: **what shape should your content take?**

- [Content Modeling](https://statamic.dev/content-modeling/overview.md): Before you build pages, templates, or implement features, there’s one foundational question to answer: **what shape should your content take?**
- [Collections](https://statamic.dev/content-modeling/collections.md): Collections are containers that hold groups of related entries. Each entry in a collection can represent a blog post, product, recipe, or even chapter of your Family Matters fan fiction novel detailing Steve Urkel's rise to UFC Heavyweight Champion of the world.
- [Taxonomies](https://statamic.dev/content-modeling/taxonomies.md): A taxonomy is a system of classifying data around a set of unique characteristics. Scientists have been using this system for years, grouping all living creatures into Kingdoms, Class, Species and so on. Taxonomies are the primary means for grouping content together by topic or a shared attribute.
- [Globals](https://statamic.dev/content-modeling/globals.md): Global variables store content that belongs to the **whole site**, not just a single page or URL. Globals are available everywhere, in all of your views, all of the time. Just like the memory of eating your first hot pepper. 🌶
- [Navigation](https://statamic.dev/content-modeling/navigation.md): A nav (or navigation for long) is a hierarchy of links and text nodes that are used to build navs and menus on the frontend of your site. Trust me, you've seen them before. You're looking at one right now, just move your eyeballs up a little bit. Yeah, there it is.
- [Blueprints](https://statamic.dev/content-modeling/blueprints.md): Blueprints are a key component of the content modeling process. Inside a blueprint you define your fields, which field types they'll implement, group them into sections if you desire, and define conditions controlling their visibility. The control panel uses blueprints to render publish forms so you can manage content.
- [Computed Values](https://statamic.dev/content-modeling/computed-values.md): Define dynamic values on your data and display them as virtual fields in the Control Panel. They're like accessors on Eloquent models.
- [Data Inheritance](https://statamic.dev/content-modeling/data-inheritance.md): Statamic sets data in a series of scopes that can inherit and override each other in order. We call this data inheritance model **The Cascade**.
- [Fieldsets](https://statamic.dev/content-modeling/fieldsets.md): Fieldsets are used to store and organize reusable fields.
- [Fields](https://statamic.dev/content-modeling/fields.md): While in the control panel all content is managed inside fields. They come in many types, from basic text and select boxes, to rich text fields and image pickers. Fields are grouped into blueprints and fieldsets and can be reused in a number of different ways.
- [Relationships](https://statamic.dev/content-modeling/relationships.md): Content is often related to other content and bits of data. A blog post may have an author and 3 other recommended posts. A product may have a brand and a category. A hot dog may have a bun and some mustard. This page covers ways to create and take advantage of these types of relationships.
- [Routing](https://statamic.dev/content-modeling/routing.md): Statamic has several ways it routes requests and defines URLs and patterns, all of which are listed and described in this section.
- [Revisions](https://statamic.dev/content-modeling/revisions.md): Revisions adds an entire publishing workflow to your authoring process. You can create revisions, review and rollback to previous revisions of your content, and more.
- [Structures](https://statamic.dev/content-modeling/structures.md): A structure is a hierarchy of items used to build navigation on the front-end of your site and optionally dictate the URL structure for entire collections.
- [Validation](https://statamic.dev/content-modeling/validation.md): Statamic allows you to validate your data using Laravel's validation system.

## Control Panel
> The Statamic Control Panel is where you manage everything that makes your site… well, your site. It's the admin interface you use to create and edit content, manage users and permissions, tweak settings, access utilities, and interact with addons — all without needing to touch the filesystem directly

- [Control Panel Overview](https://statamic.dev/control-panel/overview.md): The Statamic Control Panel is where you manage everything that makes your site… well, your site.

- [Multi-Site](https://statamic.dev/control-panel/multi-site.md): Statamic's multi-site capabilities are designed to manage variations of a **single site**, and/or different sections of a single site running on one or more domains or subdomains. It can be used to manage translations, country-specific versions of a company site, put an area such as `support` or `resources` on a subdomain, and other similar use cases. _It is not intended to be used for multi-tenant applications_ running completely separate sites. 
- [Multi-User Collaboration](https://statamic.dev/control-panel/multi-user-collaboration.md): Stop worrying if someone else is editing the same article at the same time and start enjoying a collaborative authoring process. Each field automatically locks as a user begins to edit, and unlocks when they leave or go idle.

- [White Labeling](https://statamic.dev/control-panel/white-labeling.md): White Labeling allows you to customize the logo, visible name, and basic theme of the CMS throughout the control panel.

## Frontend
> Frontend, backend, control panel, client-side, server-side, left-side, strong-side, front-side fakey 180...there's a lot of terminology flying around referring to the various aspects of a website. Let's clear 'em up, at least in the Statamic context.

- [Frontend Overview](https://statamic.dev/frontend/overview.md): Frontend, backend, control panel, client-side, server-side, left-side, strong-side, front-side fakey 180...there's a lot of terminology flying around referring to the various aspects of a website. Let's clear 'em up, at least in the Statamic context.
- [Antlers Templates](https://statamic.dev/frontend/antlers.md): Antlers is a simple and powerful templating engine provided with Statamic.  It can fetch and filter content, display, modify, and set variables, tap into core features like user authentication and search, and handle complex logic. Coming from Laravel and want to stick to Blade? [We got you covered](/blade).
- [Blade Templates](https://statamic.dev/frontend/blade.md): [Antlers](/antlers) is not _always_ the best template engine for the job. If you're using Statamic as a headless CMS or want to share views with a Laravel application already using [Blade](https://laravel.com/docs/blade) or another engine, you can do that.
- [Views](https://statamic.dev/frontend/views.md): Views contain HTML, have access to your data, and are used to render the front-end of your site. Layouts, templates, and partials are all different types of views.
- [Augmentation](https://statamic.dev/frontend/augmentation.md): Augmentation automatically transforms the rendered output of all Blueprint-defined variables based on their fieldtype.
- [Assets](https://statamic.dev/frontend/assets.md): Assets are files managed by Statamic and made available to your writers and developers with tags and fieldtypes.

- [Caching](https://statamic.dev/advanced-topics/caching.md): Caching is the life-blood, the secret-sauce, and the wizard behind the curtain of Statamic. There are several caching layers, each with its own purpose. Let's explore each one and its specific purpose.
- [Debugging](https://statamic.dev/advanced-topics/debugging.md): Debugging is the secret art of the experienced developer. The ability to inspect stack traces, rifle through response objects, and dump data to the screen is often the quickest way to get yourself unstuck and back on track. Here are some tools Statamic provides to help you debug.
- [Lifecycle](https://statamic.dev/advanced-topics/lifecycle.md)
- [OAuth](https://statamic.dev/advanced-topics/oauth.md)
- [Sending Email](https://statamic.dev/advanced-topics/email.md): Be sure to configure your email settings if you want to invite new users, send password resets, and receive form submission notifications.

- [Sites API](https://statamic.dev/advanced-topics/sites-api.md): We have an API that can be used to manage your Statamic Sites in your [statamic.com](https://statamic.com) account. This is most useful with our Platform Plan, which you can [contact us](https://statamic.com/support) directly about for more information.
- [Stache](https://statamic.dev/advanced-topics/stache.md): Instead of using a relational database like MySQL as a storage system, Statamic aggregates the data in your content files into an efficient, index-based system and stores it in Laravel's application cache. We call this the "stache", and we like to make mustache jokes about it. 
- [Static Caching](https://statamic.dev/advanced-topics/static-caching.md): Nothing loads faster than static pages. Instead of rendering pages dynamically on demand, Statamic can cache static pages and pass routing to Apache or Nginx with reverse proxying. 
- [Task Scheduling](https://statamic.dev/advanced-topics/scheduling.md): Manage scheduled tasks using Laravel's task scheduler.
- [YAML](https://statamic.dev/advanced-topics/yaml.md): YAML is a data storage format designed to be human readable and easily manipulated by hand. It's interchangeable with JSON and in most cases easier to write. Statamic uses YAML extensively to store data, content, and settings.

## Fieldtypes
