cPanel
cPanel is a web-based control panel for managing web hosting services, primarily used on Linux servers. It provides a graphical interface for tasks such as website management, email configuration, database administration, and file handling, simplifying server management for users without deep technical expertise. It is widely adopted by hosting providers to offer shared hosting plans.
Developers should learn cPanel when working with shared hosting environments or managing client websites, as it is a standard tool for non-technical users to handle basic server operations. It is useful for tasks like setting up domains, creating email accounts, installing applications via Softaculous, and managing backups, making it essential for web developers in small to medium-sized projects or agencies.
