What is Joomla?

Joomla is an award-​winning con­tent man­age­ment sys­tem (CMS), which enables you to build Web sites and pow­er­ful online appli­ca­tions. Many aspects, includ­ing its ease-​of-​use and exten­si­bil­ity, have made Joomla the most pop­u­lar Web site soft­ware avail­able. Best of all, Joomla is an open source solu­tion that is freely avail­able to everyone.

What Joomla! can do?

Joomla is used all over the world to power Web sites of all shapes and sizes. For example:

  • Cor­po­rate Web sites or portals
  • Cor­po­rate intranets and extranets
  • Online mag­a­zines, news­pa­pers, and publications
  • E-​commerce and online reservations
  • Gov­ern­ment applications
  • Small busi­ness Web sites
  • Non-​profit and orga­ni­za­tional Web sites
  • Community-​based portals
  • School and church Web sites
  • Per­sonal or fam­ily homepages

Site and Administrator

Your site actu­ally has two sep­a­rate sites. The site (also called the front end) is what vis­i­tors to your site will see. The admin­is­tra­tor (also called the back end) is only used by peo­ple man­ag­ing your site. You can access the admin­is­tra­tor by click­ing the „Site Admin­is­tra­tor” link on the „This Site” menu or by adding /​administrator to the end of you domain name.

Log in to the admin­is­tra­tor using the user­name and pass­word cre­ated dur­ing the instal­la­tion of Joomla.
