CMS

CMS (Content management system) is software designed to manage the content of websites.

With it, users can create, edit and delete web pages, fill them with text, images, videos, and other content. Depending on the type and purpose of the site, CMS often provides other features: managing a catalog of goods (for online stores), maintaining a user base or other information.

The main element of the content management system is the control panel, which offers a full set of tools for managing the site. Also, with the help of CMS, users can change the structure and design of the site without web programming and web design skills. Many of these systems include a set of ready-made design templates and functional modules with free or paid access to them.

Another popular CMS tool is the web page builder, which allows users to create and modify web pages on their own using a visual editor. It provides more opportunities than ready-made templates, helping to design the original design and structure of the site in accordance with the wishes of the owner.

CMS can be universal and specialized, designed for websites of a certain type: online stores, blogs, etc. only the basic plan with minimal features is free. Among the most popular mass CMS are Joomla, Drupal, 1C-Bitrix, WordPress, ModX, as well as “engines” for e-commerce sites OpenCart and PrestaShop.
