WordPress is an open-source and free Web publishing

tool built by a community of developers and contributors. WordPress
allows users to build dynamic websites and blogs that may be updated,
customized and managed from its back-end CMS and integrated
application and components.

WordPress started in 2003 with a single bit of code to
enhance the typography of everyday writing and with fewer
users than you can count on your fingers and toes.
Since then it has grown to be the largest self-hosted blogging
tool in the world, used on millions of sites and seen by ten millions of
people every day.
Matt Mullenweg and Mike Little co-founded WordPress.
