Backdrop CMS is the Drupal fork. It is a faster and less-complex version of Drupal 7 with many of the top 50 Drupal 7 modules included in core.
With every new release, Backdrop has included more new features - including a few you won't find in Drupal 8. Some of the newest features include built-in post scheduling, comment closing, and a tool for installing new modules directly from your existing site.
Backdrop also includes dozens of User Experience improvements, and improved APIs for developers.
Come and see if Backdrop CMS is a match for your next project!
