Building from source

For the moment, you need to build PocoCMS yourself as a Go program. Don't worry. There are explicit instructions at Build from source

To create a website using PocoCMS

• Create a destination directory for your project and change to it:

mkdir ~/mysite
cd ~/mysite

• Create the home page and build the site.

poco

Upon completion Poco tells you where to find the generated HTML:

Site published to /Users/tom/mysite/WWW/index.html

You can open that page in a web browser to get a pretty decent idea of what it looks like. For a totally functional version you'll need to see it running on a web server, even localhost.
