Each module would allow different actions on the CMS to manage the website, and a module's main functionality would allow changes for text and images on the page. A CMS is used for various website purposes, for instance, restaurants it can be used to update their menus, for e-commerce applications to manage their orders, products and categories, for a an information website to update the content / services of their pages or for a blog in order to create new pages. Basically it is a system which is used internally by the website owner in order to manage the website content whatever it is.
