phpList is the most popular Open Source email marketing software used by small and large organizations, corporations and government agencies. This “Upvote” to the software shows the massive support of people and companies to an open product which is community-driven and has frequent releases. All the above, to the benefit of its users.

Developing phpList3 and phpList4

phpList was initially launched back in 2000 when Michiel Dethmers, the phpList creator, started using the product for the first time. Two decades later and the software is quite different as many people have contributed in adding more features or optimizing those that are already there. The current version of phpList is a result of the community contributions and the phpList Ltd. developers.

phpList 4 is the latest project of phpList. This is a rewrite of phpList 3 which includes a more clean code. You can find the core module of the successor to phpList 3 on a dedicated repository on GitHub under the name “core”. Would like to contribute to the development of phpList 4? Check out the Contribution Guidelines and start now.
