Question on composer #3

Open tyeeman opened 9 years ago

tyeeman commented 9 years ago

Excuse being a newbie, I have used Pico in the past and would like to try Baun. I have read about lots of cms's using composer but have never had to use it myself. I don't think Pico required it? I am on a shared server (lunarpages) and I believe I don't have access to SSH. Am I out of luck then for using Baun?

Composer is basically the go to package manager for PHP libraries these days. It's great for development but not so great for people like yourself on shared servers or without SSH access. You're right that Pico didn't require it.

To be honest setting up a VPS these days is relatively simple and cheap (see https://www.digitalocean.com). I hope to maybe launch some kind of "Baun installation service" in the future, but for the moment you might just have to wait.

As of v1.2.0 Baun now comes with an auto-installer in an attempt to help those without SSH access to their server. See the new install instructions.
