**ABOUT WOOCOMMERCE

WooCommerce is a highly popular commerce platform on the web, powering millions of stores, including our own at woocommerce.com. In fact, one in four online stores are powered by WooCommerce, including the Burning Man Marketplace, Bjork’s official store, and the New Zealand All Blacks rugby team’s official store.

Our mission is to democratize commerce and put store owners in control of their livelihood. Therefore, our core platform is free and open-source, empowering anyone to sell anything, anywhere.
