# WhatRuns - Discover Website Technologies | Identify CMS, Frameworks, and More

## About
WhatRuns lets anyone peek under the hood of a site and see exactly which CMS, frameworks, analytics platforms, and other tools are powering it. The tool works right in the browser so users can check any page without leaving it or digging through source code. Marketers use it to spot what their competitors rely on for tracking and content delivery. Developers lean on it when they want to understand how a live site was built before starting a rebuild or migration. Agencies run quick audits for clients to get a clear picture of the current stack in minutes. The service pulls data on everything from WordPress and Shopify to Google Analytics and custom JavaScript libraries. Results appear in a clean sidebar that lists each technology with version details where available. No account is needed for basic checks, though paid plans unlock history, exports, and deeper scans. The team keeps the detection rules updated as new tools and frameworks appear every month. Users appreciate that it works on both public sites and many behind-login pages when the extension has access. WhatRuns fills a gap between raw source viewing and expensive enterprise monitoring platforms. It stays lightweight so it does not slow down normal browsing. The focus stays on accurate identification rather than trying to sell ext
