WordPress Origin Story

I was always interested in how forums, chat systems and websites were constructed.
And by no means was I a professional coder or programmer, or even web developer.
I guess I’ve learnt a lot, in my own way, getting stuff done when I need them online..

I have used cPanel for many years, so testing different scripts in softaculous is normal.
I’ve often found cool scripts, like a forum, community chat, and it felt better than xmas.
.
Drupal was probably my first choice for a cms, then Joomla which I love but WordPress
had a lot more going on in terms of material designs, plugins etc. I got hooked instantly.
Wordpress has come a long way, we can create any kind of website, even ecommerce.

Sometimes I come on here biting my nails, with errors I never seen before.
I spend hours reading topics and most likely will find a solution eventually.
Sometimes I even answer my own questions, am I going nuts? not yet.

Anyway, cheers to a great cms, WordPress!
