Self-Host with Docker · Yantr
WordPress
World's most popular CMS and blogging platform with thousands of themes and plugins.
About
WordPress is the world's most popular content management system, powering over 40% of all websites. It started as a blogging platform but has evolved into a full-featured CMS capable of building any type of website - from simple blogs to complex e-commerce stores, membership sites, and enterprise applications. Features include the Gutenberg block editor, thousands of free and premium themes, over 60,000 plugins for added functionality, multi-user support with roles, REST API for headless implementations, SEO-friendly URLs, and a massive community for support. This Docker deployment includes MySQL as the database backend.
