In today’s fast moving web, if you have a website that doesn’t have
rich functionality or fresh content, you will find yourself at a
disadvantage to those that do. The idea of powering websites with a
Content Management System (CMS) has been around for some time, but it
is only recently with the advent of high quality open source CMS
scripts like Joomla that we have seen these powerful CMS tools coming
into the hands of you and me.
In this chapter I’ll explain in
detail the difference between a “traditional” website and one using a
CMS. We’ll also look at the history of Joomla and an overview of some
of its features.
