    Time for action-choosing additional features

What just happened

We evaluated what add-on features our site needs apart from basic content management components. We reviewed a list of popular additional features and picked the ones that we need on our Yoga site.

Reviewing a checklist simplifies the selection process. When you look at an item in a checklist, you can evaluate how useful it will be, and then choose it if it's worth it. Making this feature list also strengthens our understanding of site requirements. We can then identify whether a plug-in to the CMS of our choice will fulfil our needs.

We are now at a very good stage. We have a very good understanding of what we want for our Yoga site. We have not only listed our functional requirements, but also a lot of technical needs. Let's review what we covered in this chapter.
