In what year did WordPress come out?
WordPress came out in 2003. The first version (0.7) was released on 27 May 2003. It was started by Matt Mullenweg and Mike Little as a fork of an older blogging tool called b2/cafelog.
It began as a simple blog system. Over the years it got pages, plugins, themes, custom post types, the REST API and the block editor, and became a full CMS. Today it is maintained by a big community of volunteers.
Version 7.0 was released in May 2026. See What is new in WordPress 7.0?
