Give me some advice: What CMS is best for a collection of how-tos...

[ericwright17]

I want create a website for students who are learning different programming languages to be able to see different tutorials and be able to comment at the bottom.  It needs to be search-able buy category (ie. HTML, PHP, etc.).  So that you don't see HTML results when you are trying to write Java code!  It also needs to be able to color format code blocks.  Also, an article rating system would be great!

 

I am not looking for a forum type thing, there are enough of those already!

I would just use a Wordpress blog, there are plenty of plugins for the rating etc that you can find.

Drupal. There are plugins for code highlighting, and the core ships with the taxonomy module that will let you tag each submission with various code tags. These tags are clickable, and will list all the submissions that have that tag. And the comment module also ships with core, allowing for comments to be made on the bottom. And the fivestar module will allow for ratings.
