WordPress Origin Story

I remember when WordPress launched, back when open source and Linux were the hot topic. In the beginning it was all about blogging — didn’t catch my attention. A few years later, when I needed to rebuild my website (online since 2000, all hand-coded HTML), I evaluated several CMS options. I’ll be honest: I picked a different one. WordPress at the time felt too rigid — editing headers and footers was painful, especially for someone who wasn’t a developer.
In 2016 I reconnected with WordPress and fell in love with what it had become. I started learning, experimenting, and today every single one of my websites runs on WordPress.
The best irony? I used to have a bit of an aversion to plugins — I thought they caused more problems than they solved. Now I’m the author of one published on WordPress.org. Go figure.
