Abstract:

The diploma thesis primary objective is to analyse and evaluate of open source web content management systems (WCMSs) based on approaches of design and implementation methods. These methods were evaluated using decision making scoring (Multiple Attribute Decision Making - MADM) and criteria are chosen according to ISO/IEC 25010 quality standards and many features from the website's business perspectives. For the analysis, comparison and evaluation, four content management systems (CMSs) were chosen (Modx, Drupal, Joomla and WordPress) which are popular nowadays. Based on the research results, WordPress was indicated as the most suitable CMSs.Partial objectives of the thesis are to compare different design approaches, implementation of web presentation using CMS and practices of manual coding. First website was built using the selected CMS and in the last sections, the second website was built by manual coding (HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript and PHP) to analyse the details and results were summarized. The website was hosted on a real domain supplied by the web hosting provider. This work covered major areas of design and implementation of web application built in CMS. The research concludes that all four CMSs are powerful tools to manage the websites. These tools have different functionalities and capabilities based on diverse scenarios which make one of these four CMS options a perfect fit for the key web functionalities.
