Joomla and other Content Management Systems (CMS)A CMS is a piece of web software that makes it easy for you to install, and manage a website without needing to know any programming. To get into more detail, Typically a CMS is where a database and a server-side programming language, work together with HTML or XHTML to build the pages that are sent to the browser. The unique fact that there is a database supplying custom information on the server means that the server can build a "custom" page tailored to your exact needs. A page created by a CMS builds the page "on-the-fly" using information from the database and then that page (or actually the pages' HTML) is sent to be interperited by your browser. There are many different Content Management Systems, and a CMS can do many things, it can manage and display your photos (coppermine, gallery2), it can manage your customer relationships (sugar CRM), it can plan your entire companies events (extcal), allow you to blog without limits (Wordpress), you can even commission a custom CMS to be built for a special application. By far the most talked about, implemented and the big bad boy of the CMS neighborhood is Joomla. Joomla can do many of the above mentioned things all within one CMS because of things called "extensions". Extensions do what you might already be thinking... they "extend" the capabilities of the CMS by implementing new code into the main CMS core code. There are many "free" extensions available in the joomla extension repository, and there are also many that cost a small amount to use. Would you like to be able to update all of your website content yourself via a simple admin section?
