The LibreOffice software suite is a derivative of OpenOffice.org, containing applications for word processing, spreadsheet, presentations, database management and graphics editing.
It is compatible with other similar software suites, like Microsoft Office, and works on several platforms, including Microsoft Windows, macOS X, and Linux.
LibreOffice was first released on September 28, 2010 by "The Document Foundation" as a beta version, based on the OpenOffice.org 3.3 beta version. The first stable version was released on January 25, 2011. The software suite includes:
Writer (word processor, compatible with MS Word)
Calc (spreadsheet editor, compatible with MS Excel)
Impress (presentation software, compatible with MS PowerPoint)
Base (database management, compatible with Microsoft Access)
Draw (vector graphics editor)
Math (mathematical formula creation and editing)
It is estimated that about 10 million users worldwide use the LibreOffice suite on either Windows or Max OS X, and another 15 million use it on Linux.
