About us

Aware of the challenges that overconsumption poses to our planet and observing that the advent of the Internet has sometimes favored individualism, we felt the need to act.
Passionate about new technologies, we decided to create Sharewoop: a web application that allows residents of the same neighborhood to lend each other objects and provide services
Our mission is to promote sharing and local solidarity. By facilitating the exchange of objects and services between neighbors, we hope not only to reduce the environmental impact linked to excessive production, but also to strengthen community ties.
Join us in this adventure to build together a more responsible and united world, where every action counts for the good of all.

Powered by Joomla!
ShareWoop chose the open-source CMS Joomla for its flexibility, robustness, and ability to meet the unique needs of our sharing platform. Here are the main reasons behind this strategic choice:
1. Open Source and Active Community
As an open-source CMS, Joomla is supported by an international community of developers, users, and contributors. This community not only ensures the CMS’s continuous improvement but also provides access to quality resources, extensions, and active support. This open collaboration aligns with ShareWoop’s core values of sharing and contribution, where each member adds value to the platform.
2. Security and Reliability
Security is essential for a platform where users exchange items and skills. Joomla is known for its strong, secure architecture and advanced user rights management, providing ShareWoop with a trusted environment to store and protect member data. With regular updates and active vulnerability monitoring, Joomla helps ensure our site’s security.
3. Flexibility and Customization
One of Joomla’s main advantages is its flexibility. It allows for extensive customization, enabling ShareWoop to create unique features tailored to our sharing platform concept. Thanks to its modular structure, we can integrate custom functionalities and adapt the user experience smoothly, ensuring an intuitive and efficient interface for our members.
4. Built-in Multilingual Support
ShareWoop is a bilingual platform, and Joomla offers built-in multilingual support, which simplifies managing content in multiple languages. This feature allows us to cater to our users’ needs in their native language without relying on third-party plugins, providing a seamless and inclusive user experience.
5. Extensibility and Rich Extension Ecosystem
Joomla has a vast array of extensions and plugins, offering solutions for nearly every technical need. This has enabled ShareWoop to add advanced functionalities – such as profile management – without requiring heavy custom development, all while ensuring seamless integration within our ecosystem.
6. Standards Compliance and Accessibility
Joomla is designed to meet web standards and accessibility practices, which is essential for an inclusive platform like ShareWoop. We aim to provide a service accessible to all users, regardless of their abilities. Joomla allows us to develop an experience that is both standards-compliant and inclusive.
7. Cost-Effectiveness and Sustainability
By choosing Joomla, ShareWoop has also embraced cost-effectiveness and sustainability. The CMS, as an open-source solution, avoids licensing fees and allows autonomy in managing and evolving the platform. This resource efficiency translates into more investment in developing new features for our members.
In summary, Joomla has proven to be the ideal choice for ShareWoop: a CMS that is powerful, flexible, and aligned with our values of sharing, security, and inclusivity. It provides the tools necessary to develop a sustainable, continuously evolving platform that adapts to our community’s needs. Thanks to Joomla, ShareWoop can offer users a high-quality, secure experience while adhering to web standards.
