Click around yourself

We keep 12 working demos open. Add products and place an order in the shops, or book a time or a room in the booking sites. Every one uses an official theme as is.

Note No sign-up needed. Demos reset to their original state at 4 a.m. every day.

WHY ZITTME

A site you can finish on your own

Most CMSs only give you the container. Boards and members work, but once you want to sell products, take bookings or add payments, you need a developer. zittme draws that line differently. We pick what the people using the site need, not the people building it, and ship it by default.

So with zittme you can build a complete business site yourself, whether it is a shop or a booking site. Instead of gluing modules together, you switch on a matching set.

We build what you need first

We decide what to build next from what people post on the boards. The core is updated on the third Tuesday of every month.

We build fast

AI is part of our development process. Modules that used to take months now take weeks. That is how commerce, bookings and zittme Pay were made.

Everything matches

Switch on a theme and the shop, boards, member and notification screens all change to the same design. No pieces to fit together.

EXPERTS

If building it yourself is hard, an expert can take it on

If you are new or short on time, you can hire an expert to build it. From building the site to setting up a shop, developing modules or moving your existing site, you can hand it all off.

Each expert shows their experience and real work, so you can compare and choose. Even if you have not decided what to hand off, leave a request and start with a consultation.

HERITAGE

20 years of lineage

zittme carries on a line of CMSs that grew up with the Korean web. From the Zeroboard days to Rhymix, it stands on code that has run countless communities and sites.

  1. 1999Zeroboard (ZB4)

    The legendary board program that became the standard for Korean web communities.

  2. 2007Zeroboard 5 → ZBXE

    The move from a board to a CMS framework.

  3. 2008XpressEngine (NAVER)

    Grew into an open-source CMS backed by NAVER, and built an ecosystem of modules, add-ons and skins.

  4. 2016Rhymix

    A community-led fork of XE that kept it alive with modern PHP and better performance.

  5. 2026zittme

    A fork of Rhymix that moves toward a CMS with business essentials built in.

Keep using what you already have

zittme is a fork of Rhymix. Thanks to code that has lasted 20 years and the people who kept it going, we did not have to start from scratch.

That is why Rhymix modules and skins work as they are, and you can bring your existing resources with you. We plan to keep following and matching improvements in the Rhymix core. The license is the same GPL v2.
