DCE is an extension for TYPO3 CMS, which creates easily and fast dynamic content elements. Based on Extbase, Fluid and over 15 years of experience.
DCE requires TYPO3 14.3 or newer within the TYPO3 14 release line, PHP 8.2, and the PHP extensions DOM and JSON.
You can install DCE in TYPO3 CMS using the TER or use Composer to fetch DCE from Packagist:
composer req t3/dce:"^4.0"
If your project uses an older TYPO3 version, install an older, compatible DCE version instead. Check the available versions and their TYPO3 requirements on Packagist or in the TYPO3 Extension Repository.
The full documentation can be found here: https://docs.typo3.org/p/t3/dce/4.0/en-us/
Just fork this repository and create a pull request to the v14 branch. Please also describe why you've submitted your patch. If you have any questions feel free to contact me.
