Django CMS vs Drupal: What are the differences?

Django CMS: A free and open-source CMS *. It is user friendly and has a very intuitive drag and drop interface It's built around the needs of multi-lingual publishing by default. Its lightweight core makes it easy to integrate with other software and put to use immediately, while its ease of use makes it the go-to choice for content managers, content editors and website admins.; *Drupal:** Free, Open, Modular CMS written in PHP. Drupal is an open source content management platform powering millions of websites and applications. It’s built, used, and supported by an active and diverse community of people around the world.

Django CMS and Drupal can be categorized as "Self-Hosted Blogging / CMS" tools.

Some of the features offered by Django CMS are:

  • LDAP authentification
  • Session management
  • Scripting API

On the other hand, Drupal provides the following key features:

  • Categorize with taxonomy, automatically create friendly path urls, create custom lists, associate content with other content on your site, and create smart defaults for content creators
  • Manage content with an easy-to-use web interface. Drupal's flexibility handles countless content types including video, text, blog, podcasts, and polls with robust user management, menu handling, real-time statistics and optional revision control.
  • Users can be assigned one or more roles, and each role can be set up with fine-grained permissions allowing users view and create only what the administrator permits.

According to the StackShare community, Drupal has a broader approval, being mentioned in 832 company stacks & 913 developers stacks; compared to Django CMS, which is listed in 4 company stacks and 6 developer stacks.

Decisions about Django CMS and Drupal

10 Years ago I have started to check more about the online sphere and I have decided to make a website. There were a few CMS available at that time like WordPress or Joomla that you can use to have your website. At that point, I have decided to use WordPress as it was the easiest and I am glad I have made a good decision. Now WordPress is the most used CMS. Later I have created also a site about WordPress: https://www.wpdoze.com
