What is ExpressionEngine?

ExpressionEngine is a self-hosted, open-source content management system written in PHP and owned and developed by Packet Tide. It models content with channels and custom fields, builds pages with a tag-based template language, and supports multiple sites, member roles, add-ons and front-end editing. Developers and agencies use it for custom websites.
