### Welcome to Nive cms!

The website is empty. You have to sign in to start editing content.
Please note: This page will disappear automatically after adding content.

Nive is a new -out of the box- open source content management system based on Python and Pyramid.
The cms comes with everything needed to set up a simple website: a default design with templates, a set of basic content elements and an included webserver. No python knowledge is required to get started.

#### It's easy to use

The toolbox (by default on the right) contains all page and system options. Page options always refer to the current page. The toolbox is draggable by clicking on the header. It remembers its position throughout page reloads.

Small edit bars at the bottom of each page and column provide options to handle page elements at these locations. The first icon lets you add elements, the second lists existing elements.
Content elements on the page are interactive (Except this message). Backgrounds will be colored yellow when the pointer enters the elements area and the element's edit bar appears on click. This bar includes the options for the specific element.
Some elements like links or linked images are already interactive themselves. A click on a link for example will load the new page and not the edit bar. Hold the `Ctrl-key` pressed to disable the default behavior of links and load the edit bar only.
