What is Joomla?

Joomla is a flexible open-source CMS for websites, portals, and multilingual content. This gallery lists 233 open-source projects built with Joomla, most of them in DevTools, UI Kits and Templates, ranked by GitHub stars so the most-adopted repositories come first.

How projects are selected

Projects are public GitHub repositories found with the GitHub search query “topic:joomla” and at least 5 stars. Each repository is checked against Joomla’s languages and ecosystem before it is categorized, and stars, forks and last-commit dates come straight from the GitHub API, refreshed daily (current snapshot: October 6, 2026). Nothing here is paid placement.
