We’re building new ways to interact with WordPress. They’re simple, fast, and highly usable. They’re written in the latest web technologies and are used by millions of people. We want your help to expand our reach and keep our approach fresh.
What have we worked on recently?
• Gutenberg is a new block-level editor with clean abstractions for users, too, not just developers.
• Jetpack is a plugin that brings cloud-scale features to self-hosted sites and our latest addition is Rewind, think git for WordPress sites.
• WooCommerce is the most popular e-commerce platform on the web.
• To view more of our recent work, check out our longer product list on Automattic.com.
