However, this platform is extremely popular for its efficiency that gives developer wonderful experience.

A newly chosen president of Open Source Matters, a non-profit firm that offers financial and legal support to the Joomla project, ‘Sarah Watz’has this to say upon the new release:

"Joomla has experienced unprecedented growth recently, blowing through 50 million downloads at the end of February to more than 52 million today. Despite this massive surge, we are continuing to make improvements to ensure Joomla is cutting-edge for our user community of millions of people around the globe.”

Let’s have a look on three major features of Joomla 3.3:

  • jQuery JavaScript – The size of Joomla websites will be reduced, ultimately allowing websites to load faster b moving from MooTools to jQuery JavaScript.

  • Microdata Implementation – It is one such platform that enables numerous aspects of the content rendered by the Joomla CMS to be explained in order to search engines with the help of semantic information. At last, this feature allows Joomla sites to be more searchable.

  • Minimum PHP version is 5.3.10: This considerably improves the level of cryptography, which can be used for securing passwords.

Vhad Windnagle, Google Summer of Code Co-Admin for Joomla, also commented on Joomla’s latest release:


Some of the enhancements in Joomla 3.3 came from Joomla student developers from last summer’s Google Summer of Code, and we expect more cutting-edge developments from those contributors in upcoming releases. Although the Joomla community has come up with amazing enhancements, it is important that we stay as current as possible by tapping contributions from the next generation of Internet pioneers like the Google Summer of Code students.”
