Joomla! [ Return to Matrix ]

Description

Joomla is an award-winning content management system (CMS), which enables you to build Web sites and powerful online applications. Its ease-of-use, extensibility, and support for over 65 languages have made Joomla the most popular Web site software available. As of 2011, Joomla powers an estimated 2.7% of all web sites in the world. Best of all, Joomla is an open source solution that is freely available to everyone. 

Here are just a few examples of Web sites that use Joomla:

More examples of companies using Joomla can be found in the Joomla Community Site Showcase.

Joomla is designed to be easy to install and set up even if you're not an advanced user. Many Web hosting services offer a single-click install, getting your new site up and running in just a few minutes.

Since Joomla is so easy to use, as a Web designer or developer, you can quickly build sites for your clients. Then, with a minimal amount of instruction, you can empower your clients to easily manage their own sites themselves.

If your clients need specialized functionality, Joomla is highly extensible. Over 6,000 extensions  are available in the Joomla Extensions Directory. Most are free under the GPL license.

0Anonymous Coward: "Hi fellow Mac user.<p>It&#39;s not commonly known but the Joomla! team is made up of a significant number of Mac users.&nbsp; This is highly unusual in Linuxland compared to other open source projects.</p><p>To answer your question, if you&#39;re using a Mac and want to develop locally you have the most powerful, flexible platform to do this. Your MAC!!!</p><p>All you need is a copy of MAMP (which you can download for free) and OSX (i&#39;m assuming you&#39;re using OSX).&nbsp; If you&#39;re still using OS9, developing locally is not as straight forward but we do have a special sub-forum for Mac-related questions and answers.</p><p>You can check it out at http://forum.joomla.org</p><p>&nbsp;</p>"
