    WordPress Origin Story

    Way back in 2005, my dad asked me to make him a website for his small business. They were using Microsoft FrontPage and didn’t love working with it. I started trying to make my own small CMS functionality where I could move around content on the page, but then I found WP 1.5 and used that. Years later WordPress now allows us to easily move content around the page with blocks
