proyb2 Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 I wish ProcessWire could support visual page builder as easy as Jahia CMS with most of the Web UI components display on the left column? Will be useful for non-technical user to create page faster than engage a programmers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diogo Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Welcome to the forum! What you are describing is exactly the opposite of how ProcessWire works. This would imply that all markup would be generated by the system instead of by you, and remove all the flexibility that is the core of this system. Not saying that one day there can't be a module that will allow this, but for now, I find it very unlikely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryan Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 I think it's a good idea in general, but Diogo is right that ProcessWire is a different type of CMS than the environment where you'd use something like that. The components of a page are defined by template rather than by page so that it is a consistent and reusable pattern that scales. Whereas a visual page builder is nice when you are working on small scale sites where the page is the template. I'd also echo the markup considerations Diogo mentioned. Both types of CMSs have their place, but the approaches are naturally different down to the core where the patterns of one don't necessarily make sense in the other.
