Sulu: CMS done right, in Symfony

Sulu is built entirely on Symfony. No proprietary abstractions, no separate layer to learn. You work in the same framework, with the same tools, the same patterns and get a full open source DXP on top. Content management, DAM, PIM, personalization, and AI all available from day one.

Why it's different

No new framework to learn, no dead end to hit later

No dead ends

When a project grows beyond content management, you stay in Symfony. Build custom applications, integrations, and business logic on the same foundation. Without migrations, without switching frameworks, without fighting the platform.

DXP capabilities. No marketplace dependency

Content management, DAM, PIM, personalization, and AI are all part of the platform. No third-party plugins to evaluate, no license fees per module, no external dependencies that break on the next release.

Code you can stand behind

Strict coding standards, a complete test suite, and Git-versioned configuration. MIT license with no commercial restrictions. LTS releases you can plan around. The kind of codebase you can hand over to another team in three years without apologies.

Why it fits

Built for Symfony developers

Application Framework

Sulu is more than a DXP. It is a full application framework. Your custom business logic lives in the same application as your content management. Same dependency injection, same routing, same deployment pipeline. You can build a product configurator, a customer portal, or a complex integration layer directly alongside the CMS. Without a separate service, without an API boundary you didn't ask for, and without workarounds.

DXP Capabilities

Content management, DAM, PIM, personalization, and AI are built into the platform. Not assembled from separate services. You get the full DXP scope from a single installation. Each capability is native to Sulu, integrated with the admin interface your clients will use, and extensible through Symfony bundles when you need to go further.

Long-term Project Responsibility

Projects you build today need to run in five years. Sulu's LTS release cycle gives you a stable, predictable upgrade path. The MIT license means no commercial restrictions, no per-seat fees, and no vendor approval needed to extend the platform. Strict coding standards and a full test suite keep the codebase maintainable. For you, and for whoever comes after you.
