Joomla! Description

Joomla! is an open-source content management system (CMS) that allows users to publish web content at no cost. Throughout its existence, Joomla! has garnered numerous accolades. It operates on a framework comprising model, view, and controller components that can function separately from the CMS, enabling the development of robust online applications. Renowned as one of the leading website software options, Joomla! benefits from a vast community of developers and volunteers dedicated to enhancing the platform's usability, extensibility, multilingual support, accessibility, responsiveness, search engine optimization, and much more. A CMS is defined as a web-based application that facilitates various users with distinct permission levels to manage content, data, or information on a website or intranet application. Content management encompasses a range of activities including creating, editing, archiving, publishing, collaborating on, reporting, and distributing various forms of website content and information. This collaborative nature of Joomla! encourages a vibrant ecosystem where users can share their experiences and improvements, further enriching the platform's capabilities.

    New Joomla 4 is a leap ahead

    Date: Aug 27 2021

    Summary: Ive been watching the development of 4 and it's come a long way. It's taken its time to get to market but it's finally there and I am loving the ease of use over the old. It took a morning to get the hang of it after years of using 3 as well as WordPress and Drupal, but now 4 knocks the socks off the others for its usability and extensibility. Love the new workflows feature.

    Positive: The new interface is a breeze to use. It now has a web services API, best in class for accessibility. Scores very high with lighthouse out of the box.
    Intuitive, fast and with the new workflows capability its a dream to use at any level.
    All the bits that that were missing for me have just been filled in with the release of 4.
    Media manager was improved.
    Security was always good but now has many extra features not seen with other CMS.

    Negative: It wont make tea. For a free product thats used on 3% of the entire web theres little to fault it. The media manager was the problem but is much better in 4.

    Summary: Joomla is adequate for working on website development; we use it frequently, which has helped us save time and effort while getting the most creative websites. We have benefited from each tool and its default templates that have streamlined the building of websites remarkably.

    Positive: We use Joomla to build our websites and web applications because of its incredible intuitiveness and tools to make everything more manageable. Its working environment is quite comfortable for my development team, and its web design resources significantly speed up our work when carrying out web development projects.

    Negative: Its interface is a little complicated to understand; it is not as friendly as other tools and text editors to develop web pages.

    It is the best program that can make my website a great experience

    Date: Apr 19 2021

    Summary: We have used this program to make us aware of the idea of being able to solve programming problems for clients or to create websites with unique and strengthened templates. We have optimized our entire platform to improve the experience for our potential clients. I highly recommend this program to intensify the quality of the website optimization process. It has been very influential and reasonable to do a great job in programming.

    Positive: I like the software to be of great use in entrenching leadership and building planned websites. The web traffic increased remarkably since the process has been done to expose a massive series of programming codes. The support of the program is highly excellent.

    Negative: I don't particularly appreciate that the interface is a bit cumbersome to understand. However, the software has great guides.
