| Tóm tắt: | Plone is a great success. I know very few open source projects with a longer life and a more
widespread trend—above all in the web field, where the turnover is high. I have seen so many
content management systems (CMSs) rise and fall since Plone was born. And Plone is still here
and it seems to me that it will be with us for a very long time.
Besides, Plone is not a toy like many other small CMSs, but competes with the most
famous enterprise solutions and overreaches them on many features.
So you might wonder why Plone isn’t as widely used as many other well-known technologies.
The best answer I can find is that Plone is different. Its approach to development is a far
cry from how other frameworks work. This is the force of Plone, since it is what lets us develop
in an easy, reliable, and modular way. But the other side of the coin is that it seems difficult for
people who know other technologies. They feel less productive and often try to bend Plone to
a way of working that is not the best one for it.
So some urban legends are born. The most famous and, in my opinion the most damaging,
is that the Plone learning curve is steep. This is not true if you start off with Plone on the
right path. On the contrary, learning Plone can be easy and pleasant, because you can get
results very fast. Just using the front-end user interface, it is possible to manage content and
workflow, create reserved areas to share information, organize the way your content is shown
to visitors regardless of where they are created, and so on. Usually this requires no more than
a one-day training class for people who have never seen Plone. The next step is to begin to use
the back end, where you can change the look and behavior of Plone. And you can do this without
programming—you just need to know a minimal amount of HTML and CSS. The last step
is to start programming Plone by writing your own modules, which will of course require some
knowledge of the Python language. |
