I wrote about this back in 2010, talking about the &#8216;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.killersites.com\/blog\/2010\/the-wordpress-web-design-strategy\/\">WordPress Web Designer<\/a>&#8216;. <\/p>\n<p>I use WordPress for my web sites, but Drupal and Joomla can do a great job too. You just have to figure out which one suits you best. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Learning PHP and JavaScript:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Since Drupal, Joomla and WordPress are built with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.killervideostore.com\/videos-php.php\">PHP<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.killervideostore.com\/videos-javascript.php\">JavaScript<\/a>, it makes sense (if you really want to learn how to use these tools to their fullest,) that you should learn at least a little programming. You don&#8217;t have to become a full-blown nerd coder, but you should be able to write simple scripts and modify existing PHP and JavaScript code. It will make your life so much easier.<\/p>\n<p>For a more detailed discussion, watch my video below:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/kb67HbeaaUo\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Thanks,<\/p>\n<p>Stefan Mischook<br \/>\nkillersites.com<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.killersites.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/images.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"joomla logo\" width=\"133\" height=\"95\" style=\"float: right; margin: 10px;\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I was recently asked a question about the future of web design:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>I have a short general query  about the Future of  Web Design: do you think that we are going towards a trend where, particularly with the use of Web environments like WordPress or Joomla, programming skills will be more and more oriented towards updating and customising plugins?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>My answer:<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33,35,85,12,4,9,34],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.killersites.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2743"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.killersites.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.killersites.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.killersites.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.killersites.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2743"}],"version-history":[{"count":12,"href":"https:\/\/www.killersites.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2743\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2771,"href":"https:\/\/www.killersites.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2743\/revisions\/2771"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.killersites.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2743"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.killersites.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2743"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.killersites.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2743"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
