index.php. open that file and follow the includes and you'll see the whole process.

| Dec 14, 2014 at 5:26 | comment | added | Milo | it's the same process for all requests. URLs are matched against rewrite rules, which are patterns that translate parts of the request into query vars, like year, month, day, postname, pagename, taxonomy term, etc.. only the query sent to the database differs for each request, and whatever theme template files go with each type of request according to the template hierarchy. | |
| Dec 14, 2014 at 5:17 | comment | added | william007 | Thanks! I am interested to learn about how things work, what about mywordpress.com/2014/10/18... this one I am quite puzzling and very interested to know what file does it call first that kicks off the process? | |

index.php requires wp-blog-header.php, which requires wp-load.php then calls wp() function, which kicks off the process. are you just trying to learn how things work, or is there a more specific goal in this question?
