Recommendation to build a corporate website with CMS

Question

I need help in the following problem, but some relevant contex. I studied software engenier in college and learnt mainly Java, C, some JS and after I graduate, my first job was on a low code company, so I never had the opportunity to explore and improve my skills on frameworks and so on, in a more corporate or professional way.

Having this in mind, the problem is, I'm building a corporate site, which the purpose is to show the company image, who they are, all the projects they have work on (in a form of gallery). So this website don't have any logic, or isn't even really complex, but one of the requirements is, the content have to be manage in a backoffice. They also want to be owners of their code. They already have a website but is very old and they couldn't manage any content without a developer intervention. They also own the server and domain.

So the main point here is so I can learn, practice and grow myself while build a great solution for the customer.

So, what technologies do you advice facing all this?

Thanks :)

Answer 1

Many of the current content management systems will enable you to do this and also own the code since mostly open source. Some of the options I recommend you look at include:

• Drupal: open-source, php-based

• Wordpress: open-source, php-based

• Liferay: java-based
