## What it is
The Docker Official Image packaging for WordPress, maintained by the Docker Community. It provides ready-to-run container images of the WordPress CMS for deployment via Docker Hub.

## Use cases
- run wordpress in docker
- self-host a wordpress blog with containers
- deploy wordpress with docker compose
- spin up a local wordpress dev environment
- containerize a wordpress site for production
- quickly test wordpress without installing php and mysql

## When to choose
- you want the canonical, community-maintained WordPress container image
- you deploy WordPress on Docker, Kubernetes, or compose-based stacks
- you need a trusted base image for building custom WordPress containers

## When to avoid
- you need to modify WordPress core packaging in ways upstream does not support
- you are not using containers and can install WordPress natively
- you need a managed WordPress hosting solution rather than self-hosting

## Facets
- artifact type: application
- maturity: stable
- function: self-hosted, deployment, web-framework
- domain: web-development, cms, self-hosted
- platform: self-hosted
- tags: docker-official-image, wordpress, container-image, php, mysql, cms, containers, docker, linux, web-server
