UI/UX

CMS (Content Management System)

A CMS is a platform used to create, manage, and publish digital content — like a website — without needing to write code for every page.

Definition

A Content Management System gives non-technical teams a dashboard to add, edit, and organize web pages, blog posts, and media — separating content from the underlying code.

💡

Why It Matters

A good CMS lets marketing teams ship and update content quickly, independent of engineering, which speeds up campaigns and SEO iteration.
