In reply to Joss Sanglier.

Thanks for stopping by and contributing to the conversation. I haven't written ProcessWire off completely. Perhaps in the next few weeks I'll spend some time really trying to figure things out and if I end up with a few "ah-ha" moments, I'll write about them. For now, part of this post is my documented attempt at trying to use a new platform for 30 minutes. I'll be able to reference it if I have any ah-ha moments.

I understand one of the biggest benefits to ProcessWire is getting a blank slate for everything. But it's like certain theme frameworks for WordPress that give you the foundation but nothing else. I don't know what to do if given a blank slate. Developers love the idea. I've never heard of ProcessWire except for when CMS Critic wrote about their switch and it's a 4 year old platform.

At the very least, this post gives ProcessWire some exposure they didn't have before and it's cool that it's licensed under the GPL. Maybe it will at least get a few WordPress devs to try it out and see if it's something they can add to their repertoire.
