The Influence of CMSs: WordPress, Joomla, and Drupal (2000s–Present)

In the early 2000s, the web development landscape underwent a significant transformation with the rise of Content Management Systems (CMSs) built with PHP. A Content Management System (CMS) is a software application that enables users to create, manage, and modify digital content without requiring specialized technical knowledge. This innovation reduced the reliance on hand-coded websites, making web development accessible to non-technical users and revolutionizing the way websites were built and maintained.
