Quick Glance

Joomla! is a popular, free Content Management System (CMS) written in PHP and utilizing MySQL. It is free because it is an open-source project where individuals and teams contribute their skills to its development as well as its supporting systems. Joomla! can be used for everything from simple individual sites to large corporate sites.

Joomla! endeavors to separate out more technical tasks from the non-technical tasks making it easier for a non-technical person to install, update and maintain the website. In addition, (as with some other content management systems), multiple people can be given permissions to provide content or support the site in other ways.
