What is Joomla?

  • Joomla is a free and open source content management system (CMS) for publishing content on the World Wide Web and intranets and a model–view–controller (MVC) Web application framework that can also be used independently.
  • Joomla is written in PHP, uses object-oriented programming (OOP) techniques (since version 1.6[2]) and software design patterns, stores data in a MySQL (or, since version 2.5, MS SQL) database, and includes features such as page caching, RSS feeds, printable versions of pages, news flashes, blogs, polls, search, and support for language.
