About wordpress/wordpress
WordPress is a free, open-source content management system and semantic personal publishing platform written in PHP. It powers millions of websites worldwide and serves as the foundation for blogs, small business sites, e-commerce stores, and full-featured web applications. The platform emphasizes ease of use with a famous five-minute installation process that requires only uploading files and running a web-based setup wizard.
The software provides a comprehensive admin interface for managing posts, pages, users, and site settings, along with an extensive plugin API that allows developers to extend functionality without modifying core code. WordPress includes built-in features for content creation, user management, search engine optimization, and media handling. It requires PHP 7.4 or greater and MySQL 5.5.5 or later, though newer versions are recommended for better performance and security.
This particular repository is a Git mirror of WordPress's official Subversion repository and serves primarily as a reference. Contributions should be directed to the wordpress-develop repository instead, as this mirror does not accept pull requests. The project is released under the GPL version 2 or later, and the WordPress community maintains extensive documentation, support forums, and resources to help users of all skill levels get started and troubleshoot issues.
