TYPO3 and the Government Site Builder

Digital administration in Germany continues to evolve. With the new GSB 11 release, an important milestone has been reached: The Government Site Builder (GSB) is now based on TYPO3.

As an experienced TYPO3 agency, we at e-pixler welcome this step and support authorities and organizations on their path to an open, future-proof web landscape.

What is the Government Site Builder?

The GSB is the central content management system for the federal administration. Numerous ministries, federal authorities, and public institutions use it to operate their web portals efficiently, in a legally compliant manner, and accessibly.

With version 11, the technical foundation of the GSB has been completely switched to TYPO3, a strong signal for open standards and long-term development.

Why TYPO3 is the right choice
