The April Issue

Our April issue has something in store for every Joomla user, from content manager to code poet and from beginner to developer. Like every month, our awesome volunteer authors happily share their knowledge with you, our readers.

As you may know, Joomla is developed and maintained by volunteers from all over the world. No big company behind it, no tech bro telling us what to do: just people like you and me. And as tech bros seem to be taking over the world, this autonomy gets more important than ever. Do you value freedom of choice, autonomy and the chance to contribute to your favourite CMS? 

Then it's time for you to join the global Joomla movement, there's something to do for everyone and we'd love to have you on board!

Check out this video, made by people from various Joomla teams:

There's always room for new volunteers, so if you see something in this video that appeals to you, don't hesitate to reach out. 

Other ways to join the movement

Joomla World Conference: be there!

This October, after a long break, the Joomla World Conference is back! Three days of sharing knowledge, meeting and connecting, and shaping the future of Joomla. Read all about it on the JWC website!

Become a Joombassador - it's easy!

A movement like Joomla can only grow if you help get this message out to the world: if you're in search of a flexible, stable, robust, extendable, secure and fast CMS that's completely yours, Joomla is it. A super easy way to do this is by sharing the articles in the JCM on your socials. Become a Joombassador now 🙂 and let's grow Joomla together!
