Development of Pottermore:
Pottermore started in 2008 April and was under development stage for two years. Melissa Anelli has been involved with the project since 2009. In June 2011, Rowling launched a website announcing an upcoming project called Pottermore where all future Harry Potter projects, and all electronic downloads, would be concentrated. It opened to the general public on 14 April 2012. Pottermore allows users to be sorted, be chosen by their wand, and play various minigames. The main purpose of the website was to allow the user to journey through the story with access to content not revealed by J. K. Rowling previously, with over 18,000 words of information on characters, places, and objects in the Harry Potter universe. Pottermore had some redesigns in 2015 then in October 2019 it was replaced by WizardingWorld.com towards which almost all of the content has been migrated. Pottermore publishing remains the publisher of the e-book.
