The Main Difference Between Blogger-Themed Code and General Websites
What is the Role of the Website in Blogger-Themed and Other Websites?
The main difference between the code used in other websites and the blogger-themed code stays in the purpose, their role, and the structure of the website. Here is the detailed difference between the two. First, the role of the website, blogger-themed. These are written in mostly XML and blogger-specific tags, which helps it combine it with Google's blogger platform. Dynamic content like posts, comments, descriptions, meta-tags, and widgets are being handled by these tags, that are specific to blogger, and which help them integrate with Google's blogger.
Other websites' code. General websites, like the ones we see on Google, and which we frequently visit, but are not based on Google's blogger, these are actually using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
How Does Hosting and Backend Integration Differ?
In Blogger theme, there is no need of any backend, the code is only based on blogger's interface and it handles the backend, the database management, the hosting itself, all of it by itself. The other websites are completely different from the blogger, as they are completely customizable, and can be customized according to our wishes. The programmer customizes the websites according to themselves, and there are no differences between their thoughts and the implementation. But in blogger-themed, there are limitations that you can do certain things, but you cannot do other things.
What About Hosting and Backend Integration in Blogger?
In Blogger theme, there is no need of any backend, the code is only based on blogger's interface and it handles the backend, the database management, the hosting itself, all of it by itself. There is only limited customization that you can do, and you cannot directly write the server-side code like the backend code of Node and PHP and Express and all that. You cannot do that on your own. The blogger handles it. And for the management of posts and settings, you don't have to write code for that. There is a built-in functionality like the tabs and buttons that you change accordingly with your phone or laptop, and you just do it all yourself, without the knowledge of any code.
While talking about the other websites, you can integrate anything, like any database, depending on your mood, depending on your need, and you can choose any language for the backend. That depends on the functionality of the website, and it will also require external hosting for the showing up of website to the search engines, or you can even create your own server.
How Does Template Management Differ?
Talking about the template management, blogger has its own templates, but you can also change them according to your mood. You can apply some good themes available on the web. Some of them are free, some of them are paid, and they are easy to use, easy to implement, and easy to backup and download. You can download the XML files and replace it with your own XML or the edited XML file to implement the required theme that you want. This is all about the blogger template. And you can also add and change the CSS rules that are actually the utilities in CSS that can be changed, but you do not wish to change, then you can let that be as it was.
And talking about the other websites, it's all in your control again. You can do whatever you want, whatever styling you like, and in whatever language you choose. You can even not code if you don't want to. There are certain websites like Sigma which will let you design all the things yourself. Other websites involve many files like the index, HTML file, style.css file, script.js file, and other server files and the controllers and the middlewares and all that stuff. But you don't want to ruin the experience of coding with that replacement of XML file to change the looks of a website. So try to build your own website. That's preferable.
