Hey guys ,
Just need some advice , My friend had this idea and he's had it for like a really long time and we recently jst met up and he asked me about it again .
basically he wants he works for the film industry in india and the problem is there is no platform that is available for artist to connect to the people running the industry , so my friends idea was to build a basic site where people can just come as register themselves as artist , say "finger artists " , "singer' , "actor" and than probably people will come and see them . his requirements are very basic , something 90's like will just do fine , the functionality does't need to be modern , just barebone basic .
Now the dilemma i face is , i am used to coding HTML/CSS and JS stuff a bit , but if i have to create something like this is a CMS like wordpress good or a framework like laravel ? which one would be better ? Please give me your honest opinions .

Re: Jst need some advice
Which would be better really depends on time frame and feature set. WordPress will be quick to get up and running, but using multiple data types and especially relationships between various data types is going to be clunky. Laravel (or any other framework) will allow for cleaner code but will increase development time as you'll need to code the entire CMS yourself. In short, the more complex the site, the more I'd lean toward doing it yourself. WP is fine for quick and dirty.
