WordPress Gems for Devs

We’re back at Freedom Works this month, for a slightly different style of event.

Milana Cap will be joining us remotely to showcase some of the latest WordPress features for developers.

Milana is a WordPress engineer at XWP, a freelance WordPress engineer at Toptal, a WordPress Documentation Team representative, and the Documentation Focus lead for WordPress 5.8 and co-lead for WordPress 5.9, 6.0, 6.1, and 6.2 release cycles. She helped organise some of the largest WordPress conferences, WordCamp Europe 2018 and 2019, focusing on Contributor Days.

She says that being a single mum in Serbia, she developed the superpower of fighting the odds, and is easily bribed with dark chocolate and a nice piece of bacon.

Milana describes the talk as:

“The latest WordPress editions bring some real treats for developers. We’ll look closer at the innovative HTML and Interactivity APIs as the most significant game changers in today’s WordPress development, with a splash of WP-CLI magic for faster, more fun development.

There might be a surprise or two.”

Sounds like fun eh?

There’s more too, as we have got a sponsor this month – Nimbus hosting. They’re a particularly apt sponsor after Tommy’s recent talk about sustainability as they’re committed to eco-friendly hosting, running on renewable energy. They are paying for the pizza and drinks for in-person attendees, so many thanks to them.

It will be great to get together again after the summer break. We hope to see you there!

In-person attendees: We’ll be starting the event at 18:00 with an opportunity for people to chat and get settled.
Online attendees: The stream will start at 18:30

Save the date!
The next meet-up will be a social on 1st October. Mark it on your calendars. Maybe we’ll venture somewhere different than the Caxton.
