de-clunk simple CMS

Most people had suggested to "use an already existing system" for the content management of my site, but instead i choose to do it myself, there is a logic to this reasoning.

The main reason is to further my understanding of how all parts of websites function, as either a whole or as their individual parts.

Instead of cutting myself off and using a pre existing system, i found it far more challenging and goal oriented to do my own, from scratch

this included the implementation of the database in MYSQL, creating the scripts for content management in PHP, and serving the contents through PHP to the frontend user interface.

All in all, its a very valuable thing, not only because it made me more aware of how everything works, but what the procedural steps that you should take, and the pitfalls and mistakes that you should avoid.
