Custom Fields on steroids
ProcessWire is heavily based on custom fields. All objects (Pages) inside ProcessWire are based on extensible templates comprised of fields that can be easily defined. Many useful fields come prebuilt and they can be extended with modules.
See More
Top
Pro
Easy to learn
Processwire is extremely easy to learn. Consider this: echo $pages->get('title=Hello World')->title; // "Hello World" echo $pages->get('title=Hello World')->parent->title; // "Home" echo $pages->find('Template=Category')->count; // 126 echo $pages->find('Template=Category')->each('title'); // ['Audio', 'Video' …] Selectors are so powerful but yet so easy. Check out the cheatsheet.

Pro
Powerful and easy API
The API is jQuery like; // find some pages: $pages->find('template=skyscraper, architect=john, sort=title')->limit(4); // mutate $pages->get('title=Hello You')->set('title', 'HelloWorld')->save(); $pages->get('title=Old')->trash(); // trash page // check user… $user->isLogedin(); echo $user->name; // guest $session->login($name, $pass); $session->logout(); // redirect $session->redirect($url);

Powerful selector engine
The way you fetch, access and manipulate objects (Pages) in ProcessWire is extremely powerful and easy. You can receive any page and its custom fields, filter, travers, add…

Template Engine Agnostic
By default, ProcessWire comes with 0 assumption on how you handle the output. You have 100% freedom on how you want to develop the frontend. Want to plain output stuff, go ahead. Want to use any number of Templating Engine, do it. Just use as Headless-CMS, okay!

Documentation is a joke
With currently 3 different version of drupal in active use, and at that constantly changing capibilities within 2 of those, it means that when you look for documentation is if often for a different version that you are running and in addition is not at all easy to consume. Often the info you need is in comment #100 of a thread.
