In May 2003, Matt Mullenweg and Mike Little launched WordPress, a platform that would revolutionize digital content creation. Born from the ashes of the discontinued blogging tool b2/cafelog, their vision was simple: to create an easy-to-use blogging system that anyone could access, regardless of technical skill. What started as a modest project quickly evolved. By 2004, WordPress introduced plugins and themes, allowing users to customize their sites extensively. This flexibility attracted a growing community of bloggers and developers who contributed to its open-source model, fueling rapid innovation. Over the years, WordPress transformed from a basic blogging tool into the world's most popular content management system, powering nearly 45% of all websites today. Its journey reflects not just technological advancement but also a commitment to community and accessibility. As we celebrate its 20th anniversary, we honor the vision that made WordPress a cornerstone of the internet!
