# Creating a WordPress website


Creating a website based on the [WordPress](https://wordpress.org/) CMS is an effective way to quickly launch and manage a web project without in-depth technical knowledge. WordPress is a free and open source system that offers a wide range of templates and themes for creating websites of diverse subjects and structures.

You can create and customize a WordPress website using one of these tools:

* [Management console](console.md): Create and customize your WordPress website one step at a time from the Yandex Cloud management console.
* [Terraform](terraform.md): Streamline creating and managing your resources using the _infrastructure as code_ (IaC) approach. Download a Terraform configuration example and then deploy the infrastructure using the [Yandex Cloud Terraform provider](../../../terraform/index.md).
