WordPress

WordPress is an open-source content management and publishing platform used to build websites, blogs and applications, from a blank canvas or a pre-made theme. It provides a block-based visual editor for laying out pages, showing changes to design and content in real time as they are made. Site owners can extend a site's functionality through an extensive library of plugins, adding features such as an online store, analytics, a newsletter or social media integration.

Recent updates have added responsive styling controls for blocks and interactive states without needing custom code, a redesigned media editor, and rich text and mentions support in the Notes feature. The project is maintained by an open-source community that runs regular events such as WordCamps, and the site offers learning resources and a browser-based way to try WordPress before installing it, aimed at users from first-time bloggers to professional developers.
