Do you think it is possible to create CMS that is easy to use for the users and simple to understand and extend for developers?
In my humble opinion, every time you try to make things easier (not simpler) for users it gets more complex for developers.
The answer to this question depends highly on the client using such a CMS and the developer writing it. Honestly, it's quite a matter of opinion. Some might find it easy to use, and some could be stumped or desire other features. Some developers might find it quite easy to follow while other struggle with understanding it.
In my opinion, any well written, object-oriented code should be somewhat easy to understand and extend for an intermediate to advanced developer.
