What is CMS (Content Management System)?
Software that lets non-technical users create, edit, and manage website content without writing code.
Why It Matters
A CMS empowers your team to update content independently, reducing reliance on developers for routine changes.
Real-World Example
Using WordPress or Sanity to manage blog posts, product descriptions, and landing page content.
“Understanding terms like CMS (Content Management System) matters because it helps you have better conversations with developers and make smarter decisions about your software. You do not need to be technical. You just need to know enough to ask the right questions.”
