WordPress
WordPress has evolved from a simple blogging system into the world's most widely used content management system. Over 40% of all websites are built on this platform.
Core Concept
Maximum democratisation: WordPress enables even non-technical users to create and maintain high-quality websites. The vast plugin ecosystem allows almost any functionality to be added.
Assessment
- Use case: Marketing websites, blogs, and simple e-commerce projects (WooCommerce).
- Advantage: Unmatched selection of themes and plugins, straightforward editing for content teams, and very high availability of support providers.
- Limitation: High maintenance overhead for security (plugins!), often poor performance when overloaded, and less suited to complex data applications.
