Statamic v2 is released and it’s now powered by Laravel

Statamic the flat file CMS powered by markdown has been rebuilt from the ground up on Laravel 5.1 along with a brand new control panel.

You have to love those testimonials on the home page:

I’ve been trying out the beta and they have done a fantastic job with the product. If you are looking for a CMS give it a look. It has so many features that it can be used for a site of any size and with the familiarity of Laravel you’ll be right at home.
