An Open Source Content Management Framework - Joomla

Joomla is a powerful content management system (CMS), which enables us to build Web sites and online applications. It came into existence as the result of the fork of Mambo on 17th August 2005 by the joomla development team.  Joomla like other CMS can be downloaded free of cost from its website. Thus we can say that it is free and open source framework for publishing the website’s content on the World Wide Web. It is also an MVC (Model-View-Controller) which can be used independently. Joomla is written in PHP using OOP (Object Oriented Programming) techniques and also uses MY SQL database to store the data. At present, joomla has been downloaded over 30 million times. Joomla is therefore the second CMS that has been used widely after Wordpress.
