What can developer do with Statamic
Statamic stores all of your content, templates, assets, and settings in files instead of a database. You can see them, touch them, edit them in any editor of your choosing, and even email them to a colleague.
This allows us to version control your entire website. You can roll the site back to any point in time, work on alternate "branches" without affecting the site and merge changes back when they're ready.
Your site is always "backed up" and every change can be audited. Anything can be copy & pasted or shared between multiple sites. Developers are more productive when working with version controlled code, and their changes can be deployed to your live site instantly without taking it offline.
Time and time again we receive emails from customers, agencies, and developers alike sharing quotes from their clients. The common sentiment is they are overwhelmingly impressed with how easy and intuitive the content editing experience is.
Each Statamic site is fine-tuned and configured for the sites actual content. You are not stuck with one giant "What You See Is What You Get" field, nor are you decieved by the over-promises of "page builders".
Statamic is trusted by world-class newsrooms like Der Spiegel, international tech companies like OpenTable, and thousands of small businesses. You can explore a curated list of them, if you're interested.
We find it’s much more efficient to turn on the things you need, enable features you plan to use, and name things the way you want, than spend precious time clicking about the control panel disabling everything you may never end up needing. This allows developers to jump into new projects faster than ever.
When the need for complexity arrives — whether driven by traffic or business needs — Statamic will scale with you. Swap the flat file approach for a database, or cloud data provider, switch into Headless CMS mode and use React/Gatsby, JAMStack, power mobile applications, or any number of other tech approaches.
And if you need to build a full-scale custom application, Laravel is under the hood, ready and waiting.

👋🏽 About CMS
A content management system (CMS) is a software application or set of related programs that are used to create and manage digital content. CMSes are typically used for enterprise content management (ECM) and web content management (WCM).
CMSes are often used to store, control, version, and publish content, and can be used to support multiple users with different permission levels. A CMS typically has two major components: a content management application (CMA) and a content delivery application (CDA). The CMA part allows users to create, edit, and delete content without requiring any knowledge of programming or markup languages. The CDA part compiles the content and updates the website.
