WordPress is the world's most popular content management system (CMS), powering over 40% of all websites on the internet. Originally launched as a blogging platform in 2003, it has evolved into a full-featured website builder and application framework. WordPress is built with PHP and MySQL, offering a user-friendly admin interface, extensive theme and plugin ecosystem, and flexible content management capabilities. The platform is open source and free, with thousands of themes and over 60,000 plugins available for extending functionality. WordPress supports custom post types, taxonomies, user roles, and a powerful REST API for headless implementations. It includes built-in features for SEO, media management, comments, and multi-site networks. The Gutenberg block editor, introduced in 2018, modernized the content editing experience with a visual, component-based approach.
