What is TYPO3?

TYPO3 is an open source content management system designed for organizations that run many websites or language versions from a single installation. It includes granular access permissions, structured content workflows, and long-term support versions intended to keep large deployments stable for years. TYPO3 is free to download and use, with no license fees for the core software.

Development is guided by the nonprofit TYPO3 Association together with TYPO3 GmbH, its Germany-based service company, and a global community of contributors and agency partners. Organizations that need extra help can purchase Extended Long Term Support, official training and certification, or services from TYPO3's network of partner agencies rather than paying for the software itself.
