Another template on the theme of MS DOS
this template is special in that it does not have any graphics, it is made exclusively of text symbols
in the template there is a cursor specifically for viewing dark pages, and above the navigation bar there is a special thing to show which page you are on at a given time
no frameworks. simple clean code
HTML template made in the form of MS DOS programs
Great for an old school project
Everyone remembers the “cult of the home pages” in the 90s and early 00s, for about thirty years there was a fashion for them. later it all disappeared somewhere, the Internet shut down, people went to social networks, where the same memes and videos circulate in circles. there is nothing new. I did a little research and came to a specific conclusion: it has become too difficult for people to do this.
Thanks to old habits, and an understanding of how everything should really be - I used modern technologies so that backward compatibility would take place. so what do we have?
No database required!
You only need one file to work!
Works on PHP 8 without preinstalled frameworks
Just copy the files to the server (or hosting). No settings needed.
Perfect for a simple home page.
The hamster works very quickly.
The hamster code is simple and clear!
Open source and free!
Multi-template
Easy to adapt templates.

but not only that! There are templates adapted and drawn by me in HTML 3.2 that are perfectly displayed both in DOS browsers and in modern ones. they are easy to edit, because if you simply write text in DOS in the admin panel, it will still look relative to the styles of the CMS itself, and everything on the site will look beautiful.
for those who want a version compatible with PHP 5.6-7.4 - go to the HamsterCMS website http://old.net.eu.org/
and if you don’t want to do this yourself, you can use hosting on HamsterCMS where everything is already configured - http://w10.host
hosting for those who love retro computers and want to administer their web page as under DOS, although it is possible from a phone and on modern browsers.
follow the updates, motivate the author with stars on Github, it inspires you to do more for you
It turned out to be a very fruitful month, 3 cosmetic updates to the engine, 13 new templates (only on Github)

a good half of them work under DOS, plus a couple of exclusives for hosting
