Is WordPress.org down right now?

wordpress.org is the official website of the WordPress open-source project, a widely used content management system (CMS) that allows users to build and manage websites. Unlike wordpress.com, which offers hosted websites, wordpress.org provides the free software that users can download and install on their own hosting environments.

Visitors to wordpress.org can download the WordPress software, access documentation, explore themes and plugins, and learn how to customize and extend websites. The platform supports a large ecosystem of developers who create plugins and themes to add functionality and design flexibility.

First released in 2003, WordPress has become one of the most widely used website-building systems, powering a significant portion of websites across the internet.
