Learn about Joomla, a php website management system from abroad

In the past, website construction was generally customized for development, which was highly technical and the code was not easy to reuse and maintained by others. For CMS, there was really no need for custom development, because there are not many basic functions of CMS, many functions should be reused. Joomla is a complete CMS, and it features excellent scalability.
Why is joomla highly scalable? Once you find the installation package on the official joomla website, you will see thousands of components available for installation, all of which implement their respective functions. If your CMS needs to add a feature, you can find the installation package before development, which saves a lot of effort. Many people develop component installation packages for joomla, because joomla has a good structure and is easy to develop. Joomla does not provide many default functions. joomla is more like a program base. All programs are built on this base layer. A small program builds a highly functional website. Even if you do not use a third-party installation package to create a component installation package with common functions, You can reuse the code well so that development will not be reinstalled. From the user's point of view, joomla is like a desktop system. It can install various application software to enrich Website Functions, making people feel so fun.


Joomla has a good structure, so it is easy to maintain a joomla site as long as you are proficient in joomla. Even if custom writing is good, maintainability is always a problem. I don't think a boss needs a system that only one programmer can understand.


For small and medium-sized websites such as CMS and BBS, custom development is no longer the mainstream. In the new era, websites require higher development efficiency. Therefore, development based on a complete system will occupy most of the market. At present, more and more Chinese website development companies are carrying out secondary development based on the existing open source system, because this means that the product will have higher quality and development efficiency.


There are also many CMS in China, which are both very useful and not worse than joomla. For example, dedecms is completely static, and joomla is not currently available for all static websites, so the access efficiency is inferior to dedecms. Although dedecms has modules installed, some people do not need to build modules for dedecms. I have never used dedecms, but it is estimated that the dedecms structure is not general enough or domestic programmers are not used to writing installation packages for open source. A foreigner has built such a good system. Why not use it?


The value of a WEB programmer is not simply that he understands a lot of technology, but whether he can complete the project faster when meeting the customer's needs.
