5. 13 Reasons to Love Joomla!

   

   13 years ago, we set out with a vision – to develop a CMS that stood firm on its Open Source values. Instantly, the community was behind us – with more than a thousand people joining our project within just one day. Fast forward 13 years and you could say that we’ve come a long way. 14 versions in (major/minor), Joomla! now powers millions of websites, with more than 7950 extensions lining the digital shelves of our extension directory.
