This document discusses how WordPress can be used as a content management system (CMS). It explains that WordPress has a structure of pages, posts, categories, and templates that provide an architecture for organizing content. Pages are mapped to templates, categories are mapped to templates through posts, and templates are mapped to pages to display the content.
