Joomla! overview
Joomla! is a powerful Open Source content management system for building professional Web sites easily. It is often the system of choice for small business or home users who want a professional-looking site that's simple to deploy and use. It can deliver a robust enterprise-level Web site as well, empowered by endless extensibility for your bespoke publishing needs. Joomla! is different from the normal models for content management software. For a start, it's not complicated.
Joomla! has been developed for everybody, and anybody can develop it further. Similarly to the Firefox browser, the core system can be extended via easily installable add-ons authored by the developer community. The comprehensive internationalization of Joomla! 1.5.x supports right to left languages (e.g., Hebrew or Arabic) and extended character sets. Dozens of language packs can be separately downloaded. This is a server-side application which can be run locally on your Mac.
What’s new in version 5.2.0
- With Joomla 5.2, a “What’s New” guided tour automatically starts after you update, making it easier to discover all the latest improvements in a seamless and user-friendly way. This feature can also be customized for your own needs.

- The brand-new Articles Module gives you more flexibility in displaying your content. Filter articles by category and tailor the display according to your needs – all with a more intuitive interface!

Version: 5.0.1
Joomla has had 486 vulnerabilities found so far over its lifetime. You can review them over at CVEdetails.com The dev has provided security advise and documentation at https://docs.joomla.org/Security - - There's also a dedicated web developer security page. Open Source does NOT, despite dreams to the contrary, equal security. As I say, we're still in the Dark Age of computing. There are going to be coding errors, including and especially security flaws. Coder beware. Also know that Joomla is sponsored by Rochen, an independent web hosting company who of course have financial interest. Amusingly, if you check out the Rochen website, you'll find obvious HTML errors. (o_0) Be careful out there.

Version: 3.3.0
I've been using Joomla to build beautiful dynamic sites, and give clients the ability to update their own content without much fuss. There is a learning curve from the admin side, but that gives you a huge amount of power and capability. You can compartmentalize access to specific areas for different users, and it allows you to just use templates or easily jump into the underlying code. If you are building a set of static pages, it is overkill, but for any kind of dynamic content it rocks! The crew that builds it pays attention to security, too, so less worries on that end. Spanks Wordpress, and much easier than Drupal to get started. Most hosting plans have it available as a one-click install. Check it out!
