Zammad VS Joomla!

🔗 GitHub: https://github.com/zammad/zammad

I don't know how lightweight you're looking for, but you might also want to have a look at Zammad: https://github.com/zammad/zammad I worked with a self-hosted deployment of it before, and it was reasonably low-maintenance.

Zammad is very easily the best free and open-source ticket system, but just to avoid confusion: The .com link is for the commercial Zammad offering with support or as a hosted SaaS. The free version you have to self-host is under the .org site: https://zammad.org/

https://zammad.org/ it cery customizable and has a fsitly good documentation

Zammad, open-source, free (when self-hosted): https://zammad.org/. Also has a knowledge base for you to provide to your users.

The Redmine fork OpenProject (/r/openproject) is pretty okay for ticketing and Zammad is pretty neat too.

why don't you guys know Zammad? An open-source helpdesk platform which I am using smoothly.

Joomla! is one of popular PHP content management systems (aka CMS). It is good for portal-like websites as well as blogging platforms. The first version was released in 2005 and, after long progress, the latest major one was done two years ago (on 2021-08-17).

CMSs have long been the backbone of digital content creation and delivery. Traditional CMS platforms, including open-source solutions like WordPress, Joomla, and Drupal, have been popular due to their ease of use and integration of content creation and presentation.

This post will be discussing a cutting-edge concept known as a Headless Visual CMS, or Headless Visual Content Management System. This is not your ordinary CMS; we are not referring to platforms like WordPress, Joomla, Drupal, Sanity.io, Contentful, or anything like that. Instead, we're talking about a fusion of the best headless CMS features and the simplicity of site builders like Wix or Squarespace.

To help illustrate my point, here's a short rendition of my personal career trajectory. I started out studying Marine Biology. Then taught ESL. Then worked in non-profits in Mexico and Central America. Then became really interested in building online businesses to related to the travel industry. So while living in a small jungle community in Honduras, I decided to teach myself how to make websites. I chose PHP as my first programming language to learn (with CSS and HTML) using the Joomla framework. Living in a small town, which just received dialup internet and lacked running water, I wasn't exactly in tech-hub. But I dedicated the hours and spent many long days (and nights) wrestling with the concepts of a CMS, learning CSS (for IE6 no less) and figuring out how to make a really ugly website. Then an amazing thing happened. Word got out in the town I was living in that I knew how to make websites, and suddenly owner of the internet cafe I had been living at for the past 4 weeks asked me to make them a website. So I did! Then they referred me to others in the town who needed websites and soon I had a side hustle that was allowing me to learn and earn at the same time.
