Back when content management systems were taking over the web landscape slowly but surely, the fight looked like a war with 3 major participants. Drupal, Joomla, and WordPress were all about equal and they all had their own merits. However, one kept getting better and better.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Joomla has been around for about 10 years, it was a good open-source content management system. But it had lots of technicalities and it wasn’t a fit for a beginner. I’m sure it had its perks like you could <\/span>create overrides<\/span><\/a> with a little know-how but WordPress is more user-friendly.\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n

WordPress, the only CMS with a corporate backing started to emerge as the go-to CMS for all basic and content websites. For good reason. It is easy to use, has a very loyal fan base and continues to evolve beautifully with the changing web landscape.<\/p>\n

Drupal 8 has been getting a lot of buzz<\/a> recently. But Drupal has already receded from the minds of developers as a platform that was innovative in 2007.<\/p>\n

Drupal 8 claims to be less clunky, more universal, and faster. That is great, but the truth is, it’s too late. WordPress has won the CMS battle, and a platform of the past is not the one to take the crown.<\/p>\n

What’s really important to note is that WordPress won’t be around forever<\/strong>. Just like the Roman empire before it, WordPress will get comfortable and a new competitor will start to eat away market share. It’s just a matter of time.<\/p>\n

But sorry Drupal lovers, 8 won’t solve the market share problem. Drupal will stay niche, until it too, is no longer relevant.<\/p>\n

Share and Enjoy !<\/h3>
