Craft CMS developers

An unmatched client experience

Our clients tell us how simple and easy to use Craft is nearly every time we launch a new website. While we've always been complimented on the website we build, we now receive praise on the CMS we build them on. Clients handing out CMS-specific praises was virtually unheard of before Craft. Now it’s a regular occurrence. If you want the ability to do more with your websites and are tired of security hacks and other CMS shortfalls, look no further than Craft and its extensive list of features for your next website development project. Get in touch with a Craft CMS web developer from our team today to discover all the exciting possibilities for your website.

A thriving development community

With over 250 official Craft Partners and thousands of developers around the globe, Craft CMS currently powers over 100,000 websites and is far from proprietary.

StackExchange: 12,000+ members, Craft’s Stack Exchange Q&A site is where Craft CMS developers get help and help others with Craft CMS questions.

Discord: 7,900+ members, the official online community and chat room for Craft CMS developers.

Content flexibility

Rather than having one generic ‘entry’ content type like most CMS platforms, the Craft content management system breaks entries into three different categories, or ‘Sections’ as they call them: ‘Singles’, ‘Channels’ and ‘Structures’.

Singles are for one-off pages like a homepage or about page, and while it’s a small feature, it’s a crowd favorite. Historically, content managing one-off pages has been slightly awkward and with Craft CMS it makes perfect sense.

Channels are for repeatable content like news, blog posts or even an A-Z dictionary — content that’s usually ordered by date or alphabetically.

Structures are for repeatable content that you want to control the order of. Think employees on a team page, or maybe a list of services on your service page. Once you wrap your head around this, it’s a huge selling point for Craft CMS.

Lastly, the Craft CMS field types, specifically Matrix Fields, allow you to manage complex, editorial style pages without the need for coding. Here’s a complete list of Craft CMS field types. There are also plenty of custom fields available in the Craft Plugin Store.

Live preview

Right out of the box, Craft’s live preview feature is second to none. It’s important for content editors to see the effects of their content changes before going live, and live preview allows you to do just that, in real time, directly from Craft’s control panel.

A premium platform with an open source foundation

Craft is built on mature open source frameworks like Yii and Twig, and is extensible through plugins as needed. Yii is a fast, secure and professional PHP framework that launched in December 2008, and Twig is an elegant templating language for PHP that came out shortly after in 2009.

This makes Craft unique in that we’re getting the foundation of mature, open source frameworks packaged into a premium, paid product. It’s important to note that this also makes Craft extensible if need be to a wider development community than just Craft developers.

So, for the unique situations that Craft can’t handle out of the box, we can create custom plugins, or purchase them from the official Craft Plugin Store.
