aitsu is a free and open source content management system / content management framework. It is released under the GNU General Public License (GPLv3). It is made to run on Apache on top of many operating systems, among them Linux, Microsoft Windows or Mac OS X.

aitsu is written in PHP (Zend Framework) thus uses object-oriented programming (OOP) techniques and software design patterns. aitsu makes use of Sencha ExtJS for a comfortable intuitive user guidance. For storing data aitsu uses a MySQL database.

Technology
aitsu is purely written in object-oriented PHP 5 and is based on the Zend Framework. The application structure of aitsu follows the basic Model–view–controller pattern and all additional Zend Framework APIs like database abstraction, caching, internationalization, web services (REST/SOAP) can be used within aitsu. aitsu templates are based on the Zend View module of the framework and are written in pure PHP. Therefore it is possible to use all the existing Zend View Helpers for task such as paging, URL generation, placeholders. The backend aitsu is powered by the Ext JS user interface toolkit. The communication between frontend and backend is purely based on AJAX.
