- Built in support for content elements (like extension rgnewsce)
- Support for multiple types of media elements (Images, Videos, DAM), based on relations

- Tags
Background¶

- Using unit tests
- Following the TYPO3 coding guidelines
- Documentation based on reST
Donate!¶
If you see a benefit in using this extension and you sell it to your clients too it would be awesome if you could donate some of the money you earn with it back to the developers!
You can use paypal (mail et ringerge dot org), bank transfer (just ask for details via mail), chocolate, wine, beer, ... ;)!
Just to be honest: I do all the work for fun and won't stop that - it just would give you a better feeling :)
