What Is The Difference Between A Cms And A Framework?

12. Dec, 2009 3 Comments

I’ve been reading about Drupal and Joomla and see them referred to as a CMS. Sometimes they are also called a framework, but they don’t seem the same as other frameworks like Rails and Zend. Can someone explain the difference between the two terms? Which is correct for Drupal and Joomla?

    I didnot think that joomla is cmf.
    Drupal lies between cmf and cms. Why? Just see http://api.drupal.org – it’s engine of drupal (so knowing of php programming is required), but drupal can be configured without knowing of functions of api, so it’s cms.
