help Typecho FAQ
What is Typecho built with?
Typecho is a lightweight content-management system built with PHP. It is designed for simple blogging and content publishing rather than the large plugin ecosystem of WordPress.
Is Typecho the same CMS as Ghost?
No. Typecho is a PHP-based CMS, while Ghost is a separate publishing platform built around Node.js. The catalog labels Typecho as a ghost CMS in the sense of a hidden or security-focused CMS setup, not as the official Ghost software.
Can Typecho be used for a blog?
Yes. Blogging is Typecho's main use case, with a lightweight core intended for fast content sites. Hosting requirements and theme compatibility should be checked before migration from another CMS.
Why would a Typecho site hide its core files from the browser?
Keeping core files outside the public web path can reduce accidental exposure of source code and configuration details. The exact security benefit depends on the server layout, file permissions, and whether sensitive files are actually blocked.
