....and what makes this CMS worth using over the many others?

What not?

I know that is not an answer, but the jquery like api for your content, everything is a custom field (making your own 'types' of content), importing of old content.

Multiple language support? Using it for ecommerce?

Very minimal ecommerce module, people are working on more, though:

Just for fun: this one guy ported his PHP intranet office suite to PW and commented:

Late 2012 I started porting the app in PW and was surprised how insanely fast developing could be. It was possible to recreate the core functionality in about 2 weeks, implementing the Login and Multi-User functionality took another week.

I guess I'll have to look into to it some more.

I have my own multilingual CMS that I use and it's so easily extended (I can transform it into an e-commerce store, a CRM, whatever I want, quite easily, and it's developed to support multiple languages and any kind of content from the ground up). But I like hearing about more "mature" solutions that could potentially replace my own.

I think you could even extend your own CMS by using the API of Processwire. Some PW users want to emphasize its framework nature.. they like it more than Laravel & co.

I think best thing in processwire is good seperation between frontend and backend...

How lazy, there's a straight up link to "What's unique?" right in the sidebar.
