Silverstripe is a full-service design and technology company that provides web design and web development services alongside web content management and web hosting services. The company was founded in 2000 in New Zealand.
History[edit]
The Silverstripe CMS software is developed by Silverstripe, a website development company founded in 2000.
Prior to Silverstripe CMS 2.x, the CMS was commercially available under a proprietary license. Development of Silverstripe CMS 2.X started in late 2005, as a complete overhaul to take advantage of object orientation and new features in PHP5.
Silverstripe was one of Creative HQ’s (a business incubator) first residents and graduated in 2006.[1]
On 3 February 2007, Silverstripe CMS 2.0.0 was released publicly as free and open source software.[2]
In March 2007, Silverstripe CMS was selected for the Google Summer of Code program.[3] This program resulted in the 2.2 release of Silverstripe CMS.[4]
On 29 November 2007, Silverstripe announced they would be participating in the Google Highly Open Participation Contest.[5] This led to a proliferation of themes, translations and widgets that broadened the system.
In late 2008, Silverstripe split its main website into silverstripe.com, to act as the home for the company behind the software, and silverstripe.org, to act as the home for the software and its open source community.[6]
In May 2009, the Silverstripe company formed partner associations with other website development companies to represent the company in foreign markets.[7]
In February 2010, Silverstripe claimed the software had been downloaded 250,000 times since first released.[8]
In November 2010, Microsoft blogged that Silverstripe CMS became the world's first open source web application to attain its 'Certified for Windows' status.[9]
In June 2012, Silverstripe CMS 3.0 was released, containing significant usability and developer API changes; Silverstripe Framework was released for the first time as a stand-alone framework.[10]
In October 2013, Silverstripe CMS 3.1 was released, with more visual feedback and easier preview, composer support, YAML configuration and an improved UploadField.[11]
In January 2015, Silverstripe CMS software is downloaded for the 750,000th time since first release.[12]
In August 2015, SilverStripe Platform 1.0.0 is released with a new design and extra features.[13]
The first StripeGirls meetup is held in September 2015. StripeGirls are a group of women in Wellington who are interested in PHP and Silverstripe CMS.[14]
In December 2015, with 94% revenue growth, Silverstripe again makes it on to the Deloitte Asia Pacific Technology Fast 500 Index (Silverstripe also appeared in 2008, 2009, 2010, and 2011).[15]
June 2016 sees the SilverStripe Platform become certifiable. HTTPS support becomes available for all SilverStripe Platform site sizes.[16]
In November, 2017 the first StripeCon NZ is held.[17] In contrast, Europe holds its fourth StripeCon in 2017.[18]
In June 2018, there are 49,000 websites using Silverstripe CMS. A BuiltWith report shows there are tens of thousands of sites using Silverstripe.[19]
In October 2019, there is a Silverstripe rebrand. This includes the removal of the capital 'S' from the word 'Silverstripe', and new naming conventions for Silverstripe Cloud—previously SilverStripe Platform—and Silverstripe CMS—previously SilverStripe.[20]
