„Think of Neos as an open source Content Application Platform based on its own PHP
framework Flow. A set of core Content Management features is resting within a larger
context that allows you to build a perfectly customized experience for your users.“
„Neos doesn't solve content editing issues, it gives integrators tools to provide great
experiences.“
