Annex II: Glossary
Application programming interface (API)
An application programming interface (API) is a set of definitions specifying the ways one piece of computer software communicates with another. It is a method of achieving abstraction, usually (but not necessarily) between lower-level and higher-level software.
Content Management System (CMS)
In computing, a content management system (CMS) is a system used to organise and facilitate collaborative creation of documents and other content. A CMS is frequently a web application used for managing websites and web content, though in many cases, content management systems require special client software for editing and constructing articles. The market for content management systems remains fragmented, with many open-source and proprietary solutions available.
FlexForm:
FlexForms are a configuration mechanism used by Typo3 to configure extensions in an easy way. Instead of using database fields, the information is stored in XML files for easier and faster retrieval.
GNU General Public Licence (GPL)
The GNU General Public License (GNU GPL or simply GPL) is a free software license, originally written by Richard Stallman for the GNU project. It has since become the most popular license for free software. The latest version of the license, version 2, was released in 1991. The GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL) is a modified version of the GPL, intended for some software libraries.
Markup
A markup language combines text and extra information about the text. The extra information, for example about the text’s structure or presentation, is expressed using markup, which is intermingled with the primary text. The best-known markup language in modern use is HTML (Hypertext Markup Language), one of the foundations of the World Wide Web. Historically, markup was (and is) used in the publishing industry for interoperable communication of printed work between authors, editors, and printers.
Typo3
Typo3 is a free, open source content management system written with PHP and MySQL for enterprise purposes on the web and in intranets. It is available for free and licensed under the GNU General Public License. It offers full flexibility and extendability, while featuring an accomplished set of ready-made interfaces, functions and modules.
