3.11.1. TYPO3 files and folders
The TYPO3 source code-library consists of these folders:
If you have downloaded the "typo3src_[xxx].tgz" version of TYPO3s source code you will see these directories:
|
folder |
|
|---|---|
|
t3lib/ |
TYPO3 libraries which are mostly for the backend, but some are used by the frontend as well. Includes a folder with fonts and graphics. |
|
typo3/ |
TYPO3 backend administration directory. This has been described in detail earlier in this document. |
|
misc/ |
Supplementary scripts (like superadmin.php) and old changelogs for previous versions. Not needed by any online site and can safely be removed. |
Please notice that the source code itself will not run out of the box - it must be set up with local site files to form a proper website based on TYPO3. See the introduction to this document for more information and further, seek help in other documents if that is what you need. Possibly you should download what is called a "package" if you need an out-of-the-box running website.
