Choosing your CMSThe question how to choose your Content
Management System (CMS) is very difficult
Particularly at the beginning
You have the idea, what kind of knowledge you
want to share with the world, you just don't
know how and with what to do it

Drupal vs JoomlaInstallations seems scary for begginers
Both are written in PHP, both support a variety of
database management systems, both are
available in multiple languages and both use a
wide spectre of themes and templates for visual
appearance of the sites
Both communities are large and very helpful, so
you can get all the help you need
It‘s difficult to tell, which is more popular

Differences
Drupal is more difficult to use
You have to have a lot of knowledge in coding
Joomla is on the other hand more easy to use
You don't need PHP, CSS or HTML knowledge
But pages do load a bit slower than on Drupal,
which has that advantage because of its
defaulting caching features

And finally
On Joomla several thousands of modules and plugins are
available for increased functionality and interaction of the
site, but some have to be bought in contrast to Drupal,
where everything is free
Drupal and Joomla both have its advantages and
disadvantages. There is no general consensus, which one
is better
Everyone have to decide by themselves which one to use
