# Fipamo means to save
# Fipamo
The Fipamo Project was originally a side project of [Ro](https://roiskinda.cool) to help make his development work easier by having a stable base to build from instead of having to build from scratch each time.
The Fipamo project was born from a need for a simple, easy to use no data blog platform that doesn't require much effort to set up and maintain. Fipamo uses Markdown to handle posts and renders them to flat html so you can serve them from anywhere. No complicated set ups. No long list of dependencies. Just set up and go.
With the rise of independent social media becoming a permanent topic in mainstream tech discourse, the need for easy-to-use tools to create and maintain a personal online experience that the individual can control is a priority.
Because it's the 21 century. This should be easy.
To address this need, Fipamo has evolved into a self-hosted no-database content management platform that is accessible, easy to understand, and extendable.

# Contribute to Fipamo
Fipamo is a project that wants to foster a healthy community through the values of safety, ease of use, and transparency. The creation of a tool that promotes these attributes cannot be done by one person, so contributors from a variety of backgrounds are welcome to lend their expertise to accomplish this goal.
A contribution guide detailing how to help will be available soon.
