CorneliOS is an easy-to-use, cross-browser and multi-user "Web Desktop Environment" as well as a powerful application framework.

It's free and Open Source!


CorneliOS has been released under the GNU General Public License (GPL), which means that it can be downloaded and used for free. An enterprise license (CEL) is also available, this license allows to make changes to the code without having to release them under an Open Source license.

CorneliOS as a multi-user collaboration platform


CorneliOS is a multi-user system and includes collaboration tools including text editors, forums, blogs, instant messengers and much more.

CorneliOS as a Content Management System (CMS)


CorneliOS includes a very powerful CMS (Content Management System) that allows to manage an unlimited number of websites. Web pages are dynamically generated using templates, pages and objects (texts, images and more). The CMS includes multi-language support, powerful scripting tools (CornelioSCRIPT, HTML, ExtHTML & BBCode) as well as SEO (Search Engine Optimization) tools. Alternatively you may use OLMO CMS, which is a pure multi-user CMS and collaboration platform based on CorneliOS.

CorneliOS for developers


Developers may write their own CorneliOS applications, or even write independent applications using the CorneliOS application framework (CorneliOS/CIOS). A developer platform will be launched soon (www.cornelios.net), as well as an application store (www.cornelios.com).

CorneliOS for schools & education


CorneliOS is also a very powerful tool for schools, colleges and universities. The OLMO CMS may also be very interesting for the education market.
