In the early days of website developmen­t, the emphasis was on designing the web pages around the content. The site content was hard coded in HTML. Supporting the server required comprehens­ive webmaster skills. The developmen­t of Content Management Systems (CMSes) changed website design by separating the content from the page code. In a CMS, the web pages are fed content instead of being embedded in the code, which enables the content to be managed with minimal skills.

An effective method for understand­ing a CMS is to divide it into two subsystems: One is content management. The components used in the management subsystem enable creating, organising, modifying and deleting website content. The other subsystem is content gathering that publishes content to the web and manages workflow.
