How to install Feather CMS?

The first time you run Feather and visit your site you should see the welcome screen of the system installer.

During this phase you can't use your site, if you try to alter the URL in your browser Feather will redirect you back to the install page.

Press the start installation button and wait until the system can perform the necessary steps to get your site ready.

After the setup is completed you can click the let's get started button to visit your new Feather CMS powered site.
